Our projects
Here’s what we’ve been working on.
Our services
Homes
From mid century design to brutalism to local artisan techniques, we use our client’s inspirations and tastes along with our design principles to create a distinct eclectic language to dwell in. We take into consideration key factors like the purpose of the space, its immediate surroundings, climate, the play of light to mention a few. Context and sensibility of the forms, the client’s habits and characteristics are blended into the design philosophy and full considerations given to the implicit quality of life our clients seek.
Retail
Handcrafted sketches, mood boards and customised layouts for high street stores, salons, entertainment arcades and mall anchor flagships. Made to reflect the local context and the brand’s ethos in built form to provide an honest integrity in design and ensure a comfortable and seamless experience for both shoppers and those working in store
Hospitality
We specialise in boutique hotels and concept restaurants across styles that keep the guest at the heart of the experience and provide hospitality professionals with a platform from which they can showcase their talent.
About us

Brands such as CAARA, Mamagoto, Sly Granny, CAARA at Ogaan, numerous residences and Pop Ups such as the Indian Art Fair are some successful results blending their multi disciplinary talents of art, graphic & interior design and gastronomy.
Slang Design Studio was a natural profession for them to bring these two interests under one umbrella that projects their design philosophy forward.
