A Perfect Blend of Design – Seema & Zarir Mullan

Seema Puri & Zarir Mullan have both completed their Government Diploma in Architecture from Rachana Sansad’s Academy of Architecture, Mumbai. They set up their practice, Seema Puri & Zarir Mullan Architects & Interior Designers, in 1994 after gaining an enriching experience from mentors like Hafeez Contractor (Puri) & Talati & Panthaky (Mullan). 

Their firm offers a total design solution from conceptual drawings, designs, working drawings, costing to execution. They combine the familiar with the new and use age-old solutions in a technologically savvy structure.

Their core design allows for flexibility of program and accommodation to the environment. Their idea is to crystallise creativity and let the materials take the form of the narrative. 

They believe in that the philosophy that design should rise and mould itself from the urban fabric while yet etching itself onto it, architecture, landscape and interior design should blend perfectly so as to melt the barriers between inside and outside and have tried to achieve this in the past few years. 

The firm has conceptualized, designed and executed a wide range of architectural and interior projects of diverse nature ranging from Corporate Buildings, Residential Schemes, Showrooms, Cafeterias and Private Bungalows.

They have won numerous awards for Residential Architecture, and have also been featured in many publications and they are also a part of the AD100 list that features the most influential architects and interior designers in the subcontinent. 

We are proud to be associated with Seema Puri & Zarir Mullan Architects by servicing their interior styling requirements.
