Srushti Totadri

DESIGNER

Srushti graduated from Parsons School of Design, New York,  with her master’s degree in both interior design and lighting design. Prior to her lighting education, she already had an architectural background from her time in India. Her passion lies in blurring the boundaries between the three seemingly separate fields: Interiors, Architecture and Lighting. She swears by Louis Kahn’s process of creating unmeasured spaces through measurable means — and lighting fits this principle perfectly. When she is not ogling the brownstone buildings in Boston, she likes to read, sketch, and moonlights as a crusader against the term “chai tea latte”.
