Luxury, when done with intention, is not loud; it lingers. It reveals itself in the quiet touch of a handcrafted surface, in the glow of light that softens a room. And in the rhythm of spaces that flow effortlessly from one to another. Luxe Edge is about luxury interior design that are aspirational, but also deeply personal and functional. This series brings together architects and interior designers who are redefining Indian luxury. Their work is not about excess but about precision, imagination. And the ability to make a home feel extraordinary without losing its sense of comfort.
Here, bold reativity meets meticulous detail, and curated elements become stories told through texture, light, and space. Each project featured in Luxe Edge whispers of refinement yet commands attention. These homes remind us that true luxury is not just something you see; it is something you experience. It is the pause you take in a room that feels perfectly balanced, the emotion evoked by thoughtful design, and the subtle harmony between beauty and purpose. In celebrating these trailblazers, Luxe Edge invites readers to see luxury not as a possession, but as a way of living, intentional, timeless, and inspiring.
The Furr Studio is a contemporary design practice founded by Fiza Chhuvara, a designer with a unique trajectory from commerce to design, holding a Bachelor’s in Interior Design and a Master’s in Urban Design, Conservation, and Restoration.

At Tatvam Concepts, design is not about adding more, but about discovering balance. Every project begins with a respect for openness, clean lines, uncluttered spaces, and the quiet luxury of natural light. From there, textures, tones, thoughtful details, and materials are layered with care, creating interiors that are warm, timeless, and deeply personal. As India’s idea of luxury evolves, Tatvam Concepts redefines it with restraint. Spaces that feel evergreen, yet alive with character; modern, yet rooted.
Luxury design in India goes beyond aesthetics, it is a quiet dialogue between heritage and innovation. Today’s leading practices are redefining luxury not through opulence, but through intention, detail, and authenticity. Drawing deeply from India’s craft traditions, architects and designers are collaborating with artisans to reintroduce hand-made elements into contemporary spaces, from hand-cut stone and custom woodwork to textiles woven on traditional looms. In their projects, they personally incorporate tactile elements to ground the design in a sense of place and culture. They reinterpret luxury through modern lenses: minimalist forms, sustainable materials, and spaces that invite calm. The focus is shifting from excess to experience, where natural light, spatial flow, and material define richness.

At Duende Designs, the guiding belief is simple yet profound: every detail matters. The studio’s design philosophy is built on crafting spaces that are as functional as they are beautiful, where form, material, and proportion come together to tell a cohesive story. “India’s luxury interiors are shaped not just by opulence, but by narrative, of culture, craft, and modern identity,” says Dhanshree Kharat.
For Anjali Rawat, luxury is understated, discreet, and deeply rooted in craftsmanship. A sheet with a thousand-thread count without a logo is luxurious; a piece of furniture in reclaimed wood with a tongue-and-groove joint is luxurious. It is never about display; it is about refinement, detail, and the quiet confidence of design that endures. Every project begins with a simple step: understanding. The studio starts with a detailed questionnaire, delving into the client’s lifestyle, requirements, and sensibilities. Only then does the design take form, organic, tailored, and personal. A recent duplex residence on the 52nd and 53rd floors of a landmark tower embodies this philosophy. Here, free-flowing spaces define the home: a soaring living room anchored by a Statuario marble wall and Lasvit lights, bespoke Italian pieces from Minotti and Molteni, and a dining area elevated by Sicis mosaics. Garden terraces bring light and calm into the vertical expanse.
