When Design Meets Purpose: AIA India in the Spotlight
In the ever-evolving landscape of workplace interiors, where design must keep pace with culture, technology, and business ambition—few firms have managed to strike the balance between aesthetic elegance and functional excellence quite like AIA India.

We’re proud to announce that AIA India, under the leadership of Founder Vaibhav Kapoor, has been featured in the May 2025 issue of Commercial Design magazine—a prestigious publication dedicated to highlighting innovation in architecture and interiors across India’s commercial sector.

This feature isn’t just a milestone for our studio. It’s a moment to reflect on how far we’ve come—and how purpose-driven design continues to shape the future of workspaces in India and beyond.

The Feature: A Story of Intentional Innovation

The Commercial Design article explores AIA India’s unique “Design to Build” philosophy—a model that merges the creativity of interior design with the discipline of project execution, allowing clients to entrust their vision from concept to completion.

Vaibhav Kapoor speaks candidly in the feature about the need to design offices that are more than just spaces—they must be ecosystems where teams thrive, ideas flourish, and culture is cultivated intentionally. The interview dives into:

  • The rise of hybrid work and what it means for spatial planning
  • The importance of speed and precision for corporate clients
  • How AIA bridges the gap between design intent and business outcomes
  • The value of emotional resonance in commercial interiors

The feature also showcases some of AIA’s most impactful projects—from fast-paced HQ setups to high-performance boardrooms and collaborative zones for emerging enterprises.

Why This Recognition Matters

For our team, being featured in Commercial Design is not just about exposure. It’s an affirmation of the values we’ve held from day one:

  • That form and function must walk hand in hand
  • That every square foot should serve a purpose
  • That great spaces don’t just look good—they work hard

In an industry often split between designers and contractors, AIA’s integrated model offers a refreshing third path—where strategy, design, and execution are deeply aligned.

A Note from Our Founder

“We never set out to be just another interiors firm,” says Vaibhav Kapoor.
“Our ambition was to build a studio that could help leaders build spaces reflective of their ambition. This recognition from Commercial Design is both humbling and energizing—it tells us we’re moving in the right direction.”

Looking Ahead: Designing for the Next Decade

As businesses continue to evolve, so must the spaces they occupy. Whether it’s through acoustic zoning for focused work, adaptable meeting pods, or ergonomically intelligent layouts—AIA remains committed to creating offices that anticipate the needs of tomorrow.

This feature is a reminder of the impact design can have when rooted in thoughtfulness, precision, and care.

Thank You for Being Part of the Journey

To every client, collaborator, and well-wisher who has trusted us with their vision—this recognition is as much yours as it is ours.

As we look to the future, we remain driven by one guiding belief:
Spaces don’t just shape work—they shape people.
