Who or what inspires you professionally?

Ancient Ruins inspire me through their age and stability as much as my young kids and their thoughts about the world. Starchitects like Zaha are as inspirational as my dear husband who has an opinion or two on architecture! You just have to hearken!

Architecture has always been Deepti's first love! An emerging professional, artist and a creative enthusiast, Deepti passionately pursues the projects that she handles. Her love for transforming and creating minimalistic, fluid and innovative designs, brings an energy to the process.
