About Us
Design That Thinks Beyond Walls
At The Design Umbrella, we don’t just design buildings , we shape experiences, enhance lifestyles, and bring purpose to every square foot. Founded in 2016 by Ar. Mudra Shah and Er. Parth Parikh, our Ahmedabad-based firm blends sensitive design thinking with strong project execution.
Mudra Shah
Founder
Mudra, an alumna of CEPT University, leads the design vision with a deep rooted, research led approach. Her work is strongly driven by cultural and geographical context, creating spaces that feel personal, purposeful, and timeless. She is also closely associated with design education, mentoring young talent across Ahmedabad and Vadodara.
Parth Parikh
Co-Founder
What sets us apart is our end-to-end capability. From helping clients evaluate ROI and navigate permissions to complete design, project management, and on-site execution we take care of it all, under one roof.
A project is truly successful when our clients not only understand our design vision but believe in it. When that vision is built with precision on time, on site, and with a commitment to quality it becomes more than just a completed space; it becomes a space that adds lasting value to their lives.
A failed project for us means
Even if a project is delivered, if we haven’t been able to elevate the space if the design, detailing, or execution fall short of what it could have been it feels incomplete. Sometimes, the client may not notice what’s missing. But we do. And for us, that’s not good enough.
