Interior Designer · Portfolio 2026

Spaces that feel
quietly considered.

Hi, I'm Shilpi — an interior designer finishing my M.Voc in Interior Design at Mangalayatan University. I design residential and commercial interiors end-to-end, from space planning and manual drafting to photoreal 3D renders.

About

Designing rooms the way people actually live in them.

I'm in my final semester of a Master of Vocation (M.Voc / MBA-equivalent) in Interior Design at Mangalayatan University, graduating in two months and actively looking for my first full-time role.

My process starts on paper — I still prefer manual drafting for residential and commercial layouts — and moves through CAD documentation, 3D modelling in SketchUp and 3ds Max, and photoreal rendering in V-Ray. I care most about material palettes, proportion, and how a space is lit.
