AWOL Design Studio is a Chennai-based architecture and interior design practice known for crafting spaces that are context-driven, thoughtful, and rich in detail.
Founded in 2021 by Inesh Sah and Karran Kumar, the studio works across residential, hospitality, institutional, and commercial sectors. Rather than adhering to a signature style, AWOL responds to the people, stories, and contexts that define each brief. The result is a diverse body of work - united not by aesthetics, but by a commitment to unique and meticulous designs that elevate both storytelling and user experience.
Design Philosophy
A Note From The Founders
Every project begins with immersion - in the people for whom we're building, the stories they hold dear, and the aspirations they have for their spaces. From there, guided by context, we craft environments that balance function with emotion, restraint with quirk, and aesthetics with purpose.
Our design philosophy cannot be boxed into a singular style. Rather, it is a conversation; an act of moulding an identity from foundation to finishes, from broad concepts to the minutest of details.
