DesiDIY Design Studio

Divya Kandala

Years ago, my husband and I purchased a builder-grade house with white walls, standard carpets and simple fixtures. To the untrained eye, it was average, boring even. But to us, it was a blank canvas, filled with possibilities – and we couldn’t wait to embark on a DIY journey that would transform our new house into a home that reflected our culture, style, and personality.

Albert Einstein is often quoted as saying, “Creativity is contagious. Pass it on.” And we did. My husband and I started a blog to share our ideas and document our progress, aimed at inspiring readers to get creative within their own spaces. In the due course, we discovered our passion for helping them transform their own spaces to match their own unique style. And, as one thing generally leads to another, that’s how I became an interior designer, and my husband and I came to start our own interior design company.

As a design studio, we pride ourselves on skillfully reimagining South Asian influences within a contemporary aesthetic. We strive to create nooks and corners that  invoke nostalgia, serving as delightful conversation starters or just as a reminder of fond memories. We fuss over the little details and painstakingly create bespoke pieces for you so we leave a part of ourselves with you. That's how we roll. If you've been looking for a way to incorporate a bit of home, reach out to us and we'd love to work with you to get your vision to reality.
