I’m an Indian registered architect with 5+ years of experience and founder of Cresoul Architects. My practice is built on a core belief: every design should be as unique as the individual it serves. At Cresoul, we design spaces where the soul of the space aligns with the soul of the person using it. Recently relocated to Melbourne, I’m exploring new opportunities and collaborations locally while continuing to work with global clients. I have an ongoing partnership with Dinesh Potluri Group, Michigan, USA, and operate as a freelance architect and designer. I collaborate with architects, builders, contractors, and creative professionals worldwide. My design expertise extends beyond architecture into T-shirt design, book covers, logo design, and other creative domains where ideas can take shape.
