Design heads of Mumbai-based interior design Quirk Studio, Des. Disha Bhavasar and Des. Shivani Ajmera have always felt they were meant to be in design. Constantly evolving with the times, they now focus on finer aesthetics as they experiment with materials to create minimalistic and understated designs. Looking back on their beginnings, they say, “Our design is always evolving.”
The two interior designers belonged to different worlds but their love for art and design inspired them to start Quirk Studio together in 2013. Des. Bhavasar moved from Muscat to study interior design at Nirmala Niketan, Bombay. This was followed by a Master’s degree in Design Management at the Winchester School of Arts, University of Southampton. Des. Ajmera credits her current technical knowledge to her international exposure and training in design and art at the Florence Design Academy, Italy. Upon her return, she worked at leading architecture firms such as Talati and Panthanky and Red Architects, a path that led to the inception of Quirk Studio with Des. Disha Bhavasar.
Over the years, the duo has designed many celebrity design projects together. The landmark, close to their hearts, would be these, “House No. 12 and Office With a View have been pivotal projects in our journey due to the freedom we had from clients while designing the space. The trust and the challenge to push boundaries in terms of design helped us come into our own and was an integral part of forming Quirk Studio’s design aesthetic.”
