THE SOURCE OF INSPIRATION- Home, Travelling,& People

Saachi Marwah Rana grew up in a home that was constantly evolving, the beautiful and unusual objects, textures, and colors always surrounded her. She grew up in an environment where everything was always in a state of flux – “I’d come home from school and the dining room would be a new color or my father would add another art piece to our little home”, says Saachi. This is where Saachi got her creative skills and her home had always been a source of inspiration for the ideas which she interweaves in her designing and styling.

Many people from past and present and also her love for travel, had inspired Saachi’s work. Meeting people of different cultures and understanding their local and ancient traditions reflects in her designs and design processes. Saachi speaks about how she had been positively influenced by the talents of various renowned people, “It ranges from architects like Frank Gehry the award-winning architect who has spent more than a half-century disrupting the very meaning of design within architecture for his use of unconventional forms, geometric fields, interesting textures, and material juxtaposition to John Woolf for his glamorous interiors, delicate architectural proportion, and graceful details; interior designers from Kelly Wearstler for her exquisite superior-quality furniture designs and bespoke products.

Adding ‘Saachi Rana’ to my design is constantly evolving as I gain knowledge about antiquities uses for different materials. I feel more confident, which means I’m willing to take more risks in my work.”

STRENGTHS AS A INTERIOR DESIGNER

As a designer, Saachi is a great listener and very intuitive. Her most valuable asset is the combination of imagination and hard work and loving whatever she does. A designers have to be very creative as well, and thus they can’t be bound by particular working hours to keep their creativity flowing.

They can be inspired by anything, anywhere and their creative strings could start playing at any odd hour; and odd working hours are the hardest part of Saachi’s job.

AMAZING TIPS FROM SAACHI MARWAH RANA

Saachi Marwah Rana feels that a winning design has a perfect mixture of tension and drama, hence big or small; any project is about creating the design for her. Saachi’s mantra is to have fun and put unexpected mixes together and this goes for both fashion and interior designing. So her advice is to be fearless and have fun when you are planning to style your interior, be it office space or your home.

“If it’s something you love, then just do it. People will always tell you, ‘Oh, you’re not supposed to do that…’ but I’ve found that there are no rules in the designing and no rights and wrongs, you can achieve unbelievable results when you listen to your heart. You have to outstand others. Don’t follow what others are doing and create something that is truly your own.”
