Crafted better
Eighteen years of shaping Indian homes — where Kota stone, teak and quiet daylight are put to work for the way you actually live.
Built for India
Monsoon-ready detailing, sunlight studied floor by floor, and joinery made by karigars we have worked with for a decade.
Living, refined
Turnkey interiors delivered on a fixed timeline and a fixed price — from the first mood board to the last brass handle.

About Vastukala
Designing timeless spaces where craft, function and Indian light live in perfect harmony
We started in a two-room office off Cunningham Road in 2006 with one conviction — that an Indian home should be designed for Indian weather, Indian families and Indian craftsmanship, not lifted from a European catalogue.
Today the studio runs a 42-person team across Bengaluru, Mumbai and Gurugram, with our own joinery workshop in Peenya. Every drawing that leaves the studio has been walked through on site by the person who drew it.
- In-house joinery unit — no third-party carpentry surprises
- Fixed-cost BOQ with GST shown upfront, no hidden line items
- Ten-year warranty on modular units and civil work

How We Work
Four steps from first call to key handover
01
Consultation
A site visit, a measure-up and an honest budget conversation — including what we would not spend money on.
02
Concept & Layout
Mood boards, material samples in hand, and two layout options priced against the same BOQ.
03
Design Development
Working drawings, 3D walkthroughs, electrical and plumbing coordination signed off before demolition begins.
04
Execution & Handover
Weekly site photos, a snag list you sign, and a maintenance folder handed over with the keys.
Free Estimate
Tell us the carpet area. We will tell you the number.
Send us your floor plan and we will come back with an indicative BOQ within two working days — inclusive of GST, with nothing hidden below the fold.

Client Voices
Hear what our clients say about working with us
“We had been quoted three wildly different numbers before Vastukala. They were the only studio that walked us through the BOQ line by line, and the final bill landed within ₹40,000 of the estimate. Our 3BHK in Sarjapur was ready three days early.”
Priya NairHomeowner, Sarjapur Road, Bengaluru
“Our Lower Parel office had to stay operational through the fit-out. Rohan's team worked nights and weekends, and not one of our 180 people lost a working day. That is rarer in this industry than it should be.”
Vikram ShettyCOO, Zeta Analytics, Mumbai
“They sourced Athangudi tiles from a family unit in Karaikudi and matched them with brass from Moradabad. Guests photograph the lobby floor before they check in. That is the whole business case, really.”
Ritu ChauhanOwner, Haveli Suites, Jaipur
“Two monsoons on and there is not a single seepage stain or swollen shutter anywhere in the flat. They insisted on marine ply and BWP-grade everything, even when we pushed back on cost. They were right.”
Sandeep MenonHomeowner, Kochi, Kerala
