Aditi Sharma is as good at dressing up spaces as she is people! The interior designer is also a talented jewelry artist who creates statement pieces out of concrete.
What role has formal design education played in your career?
AS: Pursuing a Master’s in Interior Design at Domus Academy in Milan gave me a lot of clarity and direction. I had earlier traveled to Milan thrice to attend furniture fairs which gave me a fair idea of what the city had to offer but eventually it was much more than I had expected! Personally, spending time with other students from different nationalities was very enriching and professionally, apart from exposure, it taught me how to deal with design in a multidisciplinary way.
What made you decide to become an entrepreneur?
AS: It was totally unplanned and a very quick decision. After quitting my job as senior interior designer with Studio Archohm in Noida, I wanted to give myself a chance to do something on my own. Moving from a big office of 50 people where I was dealing with so many things at a time, to being by myself was quite challenging and lonely. I started Aditi Sharma Design Studio in New Delhi in 2015. Initially I would get lost and impatient but gradually it all started to make sense. Exploring fashion for Greytone apart from site work made the whole process fun and interesting.
