Paving the path of Interior Designing
through Creativity, Imagination and Artistic
approach
B
orn is Shillong, popularly
known as the Scotland of
the East, Neha Jhanjhri
has always been an
interior designer who
identifies herself as an admirer of
beauty. According to her, mother
nature has been kind enough
to inculcate in her an inherent
tendency to look through the finer
things of life and further implicate
the same in day-to-day life. In other
words, all her creativity, imagination,
and artistic approach to the things
around her drove her to the path
of becoming an interior designer.
Before starting up with her own
venture, Neha worked with
experienced professionals
in the field of interiors, as
a Fresher. While working
with one such firm, she got
an opportunity to design
a project independently
and execute the same.
After the completion of the
project successfully she
started freelancing and that
was the beginning of her
entrepreneurial journey.
As a designer, setting up an
independent design firm was not a
piece of cake. The path was hindered
with multiple challenges and at the
same time, delivering satisfying
results as per client expectations
were critical. However, in July 2017,
Neha founded Meraki Interiors and
thus began her entrepreneurial
journey. Currently her firm is
working at pan India level pursuing
villa and institutional projects like
hospitals in Raipur, hotel project
in Jaipur, commercial project in
Raja Khariar in Odisha and some
upcoming villa projects in Udaipur.
Meraki Interiors also specializes in
creating ergonomic furniture with
spellbound colour combinations

and intricate designs. They are
designed specifically for efficiency
and comfort. As compared to
traditional furniture, ergonomic
chairs ensure the user’s body is
kept in a safe and upright position
to reduce stress on the spine, neck
and hips.
According to Neha, “A well-designed
interior is essential to a structure’s
ambience. This is because interior
design provides a soul to a building,
making it more functional, pleasant
and livable. So, it can be said a
beautiful space are always ways to
improve the mood, increase focus
and reduce anxiety.” She feels that
homes and workspaces are not
mere structures anymore. They
are now considered as an extension
of an individual’s character, so the
need for an elegantly designed
space is much more relevant today
than ever before.
Since inception, Meraki Interiors
is very particular about client
servicing. They are into thorough

setting an independent design firm wasn’t easy,

Elusive concepts in the clients mind sometimes
led to problems but she always found her way
through it just by being herself and presenting
her designing skill. Managing home and work
space simultaneously also posed few challenges.

She feels that one should have in-depth

academic knowledge along with few years of
industry experience before starting off by own.
Managing client expectations is one of the most
crucial aspects of running an interior design
business. Establishing a mutual understanding
of the end-to-end design process lays down the
foundation for a trustworthy and rewarding
designer-client relationship. As an interior
designer, the reputation is everything in this
business, therefore, consistently maintaining
positive relationships with clients will lead
to more successful and productive projects.
According to her, it’s important in all walks of
life to try not to lose sight of why you started
out on your career path in the first place.
