Research Thesis

Studio Chahal is an architectural and interior design practice founded by twin architect sisters, Chinar Shah and Charmi Shah. The practice focuses on finding the most felicitous 'Hal', i.e. design solutions, that are human-centric, functional, and engaging.

CHinar, one half of 'CHahal' did her bachelor's in Architecture from Nirma University, India, and her master's in Design Management from Savannah College of Arts and Design, USA. She strongly believes that Design Management is a holistic toolset (encompassing processes, systems, approaches, tactics, and strategies) that can enhance design efficiency and efficacy. It is the craft of unleashing design’s potential, fostering the seamless merging of design and business to amplify the impact of design as a whole. It serves as an intermediary and facilitator, bringing together diverse fields.

CHarmi, the other half of 'CHahal' is a graduate from CEPT University, India. She loves to delve into the depths of design through detailing and resolving, so as to bring out the intent of the idea.
