One of my favorite projects - the clients love color and we made this bespoke rug for them from my own collection. It's now their favorite hangout space and since they wanted to keep the old stone fireplace, we worked around it and it became a perfect spot for them to read by the fire! @rajirmdesign #rajirmdesign #rajirmrugs #rugs #color 📷 @rikkisnyder
The Oonjal /
One of my favorite moments at our daughter's three-day wedding @thetamarindtree_blr in the most traditional attire for married women - The Oonjal - with all my favorite women going around the young couple! #ShrutiKalyanam #rajirmdesign @rajirmdesign #indianwedding #wedding #saris #kanjeevaram

Light /
A corner of my kitchen this afternoon. Reminds me exactly why we love this home - the light! The incredible light we get in this home is like no other. Light dances in this home, highlighting and creating unintended still life and vignettes all on it's own. Such a joy to behold! #blessed #rajirmdesign @rajirmdesign #stilllife #basil #apples #bronze
Missing /
As I rest in my bedroom, oddly enough the thing right now I miss the most is sitting in our living room and doing our "hygge"! #homesweethome #rajishome @rajirmdesign #rajirmdesign #rajirmmurals #rajirmrugs 📷 by @rikkisnyder
Withering blooms /

Humpty Dumpty /
So...although I've fallen down umpteen times before and had not even a sprain, this time it turns out to be two bone fractures and a ligament tear!! Yikes!! Recovery is expected in two months and that is going to kill me!! Dear god there's only so much reading and Netflix I can do...already want to jump out of bed and head out!! 😂😩#nohashtags😏
A floral arrangement /
Loving this floral arrangement!! Thanks @shruti_narasimhan #weddingflowers #flowers #bloom
Musings /
Happy Friday! As I plan my next project, all I can seem to think of is what I wore to my cousin's son's wedding in #California! Not really in a mood to work but the colors and workmanship do inspire me!!! Anyway, it was a bespoke pinkish red #Kanjeevaram #silksaree with borders and Pallu in silver-gold zari depicting the story of #Rama . I love this one!! I had a contrasting blue tissue #blouse made with custom #embroidery of a #flower vine on the sleeves paired with a semi-precious gems #choker @rajirmdesign #rajirmdesign #kanjeevaram #kanjeevaramsaree #silksaree #saris #indianfashion #indianwedding #jewelry #saree #wedding #indianjewelry #colorful #weddingtime #weddingseason #weddingfashion #handloom #style #tradchic #myphoto #whatiwore
The view /
I think this view from our client's #kitchen and #breakfast area to their #foyer is sublime! This was a whole house gut #renovation and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome!! 📷 by @rikkisnyder @rajirmdesign #rajirmdesign #rajirm #whitekitchen #chevronfloor #interiordesign #interiors #instastyle
