About

I’m Vidhi Purohit, a Council of Architecture (COA)-registered architect based in San Diego, with 3+ years of experience bridging design thinking and technical execution across residential, commercial interior, and mixed-use projects. I enjoy taking concepts from early 3D spatial exploration through coordinated construction documentation—working closely with principals, consultants, and contractors to keep drawings accurate, consistent, and construction-ready.

In my recent roles, I’ve led construction documentation for custom luxury residential projects, developed reflected ceiling plans and interior elevations, and coordinated material/finish detailing while supporting coastal permit submissions in California. I’m also experienced in model home and residential design development in Canada, including responding to RFIs, reviewing submittals, and supporting construction administration through quality checks—using tools like Revit, Rhino, SketchUp, AutoCAD, and Bluebeam.
