Studio Astrid – Adding New Dimensions to the Architectural and Interior Designing Sector
Difficult journeys often lead to beautiful destinations. And having one such trajectory of life, Bhawna Khanna, from being a dreamer to a market leader in the architecture and interior designing field, is one such inspirational example for many budding designers out there.
Since her school days, Bhawna was highly fascinated with the beauty of tall standing buildings and beautiful structures. That’s exactly the time when an innovative, out-of-the-box thinker rose in the landscape of architecture. However, before a happy ending, there is always a plot-twist that makes the story even more interesting.
While she was pursuing her Bachelor’s in Architecture, the recession hit the world and made things pretty difficult for the freshers to get a job. But what makes you weak also makes you stronger. Many obstacles tried to put her down but she bounced back higher every time.
After her graduation, Bhawna got a job in an architecture firm but that was not the last stop for her indeed. One day, while coming back home from work, Bhawna thought that something was missing in her career; there was a lot that she hadn’t explored yet. “Am I just meant to draft designs and follow the same old patterns for every project?” she asked herself and the answer was “No”.
After tossing all night on her bed, a new morning came with a new goal for her – to start her designing studio, where she can experiment with designs and spaces. Even for her family, it was hard to believe in her as for a newly graduated architecture student with no contacts in the field it would have been difficult to get business.
A place called home is a dream for many, and Bhawna believes that it is every person’s right to make a dream place that speaks for them and gives them peace and happiness. And, to transform those dreams into reality, the Architect incepted Studio Astrid in Delhi that offers the most unique architectural and interior designing consultation. With over 6 years of expertise in the field, Studio Astrid amalgamates their practical approach to manage space and the big dream lists of its clients to make their dreams come true.
Success isn’t overnight. It’s when every day you get a little better than the day before. It all adds up.
