KRUPA ZUBIN & ZUBIN ZAINUDDIN
The creative force behind the studio is not singular it is a dialogue.A constant exchange of instinct, intuition and intent between two individuals who have built a practice as much on belief as on craft.
For Krupa Zubin, it began with conviction.A quiet but unwavering belief in what the studio could become long before it took form. That belief continues to anchor the practice today. Her sensibility is deeply intuitive, enriched by an inherent understanding of art, a love for fabrics and an acute sensitivity to finishes. She brings an effortless sense of layering to every project where materials, textures and details come together with quiet confidence rather than excess. Spaces under her influence feel composed yet nuanced, where technology, light and tactility are orchestrated with clarity and restraint. There is an emotional intelligence to her work that goes beyond design, creating homes that feel personal, lived-in and enduring.
For Zubin Zainuddin, the process begins long before a line is drawn.A constant learner and an instinctive observer, his perspective is shaped as much by inquiry as by experience. A voracious reader across literature, philosophy, comics and the visual arts, he approaches design with a mind that is continually absorbing, questioning and connecting. References are not assembled they are internalised. Ideas emerge from a layered memory of spaces, images and narratives, recalled intuitively rather than methodically. His work is less about a defined style and more about a continuous pursuit of a certain feeling a spatial narrative that is both precise and expansive. Each project becomes an opportunity to reinterpret, to evolve, to push the boundaries of what the studio has previously created.
Together, their collaboration is both fluid and deliberate. Ideas are challenged, refined and elevated through conversation never imposed, always discovered.There is a natural balance between Krupa’s instinctive clarity and Zubin’s exploratory depth, resulting in work that is layered yet resolved, expressive yet controlled.Their shared journey continues to shape the studio’s voice bringing a broad, ever-evolving perspective while remaining deeply rooted in context and individuality.
At its core, their work is not about creating spaces it is about crafting environments that hold meaning, memory and a distinct sense of belonging.
