Designers Group was established in 1988 by Khozema and Sujata Chitalwala with a dream and an endeavour to institute it as an internationally acclaimed design firm. They believe in simple and straight-line design and use materials, colours, textures and forms, in a smart and innovative way to create world-class designs. The underlining creative expressions of the firm’s style – Luxury and Simplicity – though diabolically opposite in character, co-exist harmoniously in all they do! The most remarkable achievement, however, is the way in which the firm is able to infuse a sense of luxury, grandeur, warmth and comfort in the often sharp, almost starkly contemporary spaces and ambiences.
Post the initial struggle, with persistence and hard work, the firm got to work on Taj Hotels and Resort. This IHCL project was the turning point for Designers Group, granting a directional focal point on hospitality that, over a period of time, projected them as a leading hospitality design firm in India.
Nature has always been a great source of inspiration for the firm’s design philosophy, keeping sustainability a key focus while outlining astounding hospitality marvels. Professionally, a creative stimulus was postulated in Khozema by the international design firm Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA), a global runner in the Hospitality Design sector, which encouraged him to create a focused Hospitality Practice, invoking an understanding of Indian Hospitality industry.
At Designers Group, the team believes that contextual and sensitive design adds in-measurable value to any project. According to his design pedigree, Khozema firmly believes that “being simple is difficult” which is an evident feature in his designs. Overall, their designs cater to the clients’ needs holistically by designing for a wholesome experience.
Though the firm has a few exceptional residential and commercial projects, it remains, steadfastly, a Hospitality Industry design firm. Post divulging deep into interior design grounds, Designers Group surfaced back to architectural waters with an impeccable creative streak. Placing its stalwart in the design fraternity, Designers Group today is associated with multitudinous national and international hotel brands including Taj, Marriott, Sheraton, Hilton, Pride, Holiday Inn, Mahagun, Ramada, Park Plaza, Novotel, Hometel, Radisson, Heritage, Grand Mercure, Avadh, Regenta, Orchid, Golden Tulip, Fariyas, The Fern, Choice, 7 Apple, Fortune, Wow, Best Western, Imperial, Sarovar, Blossom, etc.
Designers Group’s project Devi Ratn has recently been awarded the World Architecture Award in the 34th cycle and Estrade Award 2020 in Leisure Interior category. A private residence designed by them has also won Estrade Award 2020 in Interior Design- Private Residence category.
