About Luminae
The Studio

Our Story

Luminae Studio
Founded 2020

Built on the belief that beauty is never accidental

Luminae Interiors was founded in New Delhi in 2020 with a single conviction: that the homes we inhabit are the most intimate expression of who we are. In a market crowded with trend-chasing and generic solutions, we set out to do something different — to design spaces that earn their beauty through restraint, intention, and craft.

In five years, we have built a practice known for its refusal to rush, its obsessive attention to material quality, and its deeply collaborative approach to every commission. Our clients are discerning homeowners, forward-thinking developers, and businesses that understand the language of design.

We operate from studios in New Delhi and Mumbai, with active projects across Goa, Bengaluru, and international commissions from the Indian diaspora.

What Guides Us

Our values

I

Restraint Over Excess

We believe that what you leave out is as important as what you include. Our interiors are edited ruthlessly — every element must earn its place.

II

Material Honesty

We choose materials for how they age, not how they photograph. Stone that develops patina. Wood that tells a story. Textiles that soften with use.

III

Client as Author

You are not a passive recipient of our design. You are its co-author. We listen deeply, then translate what we hear into spaces that feel unmistakably yours.
