Ep-06: The Story of an Architect ft. Akshaya Mestry on Unsettling by Amrita Sukumar

The flats, the bungalows the apartments that you live in.  Your workplace, your parks and the cafes that you go on dates in. The gyms where you workout, the dance classes where you sweat out, all the spaces around you that are man-made are designed by an Architect.

Episode 6 of UNSETTLING is a conversation with an Architect Akshaya Mestry. She talks about her journey of setting up her own practice, the struggles of convincing a client, and the struggles she had to face to just find a footing in this ever-competitive world are some of our conversation topics. It's been two years since she set up her own firm and since then has worked on various Commercial and Residential projects. One of her projects Wok this Way has been featured in a lot of design magazines like The Design Collective, The Architect's Diary and  Design Essentia Magazine.
