Profile:
I completed the five-year bachelor’s program in Interior Design in 2022 from the Faculty of Design, CEPT University, Ahmedabad.
Design is an amalgamation of functionality, aesthetics, and customization. When these three co-exist the space owns the user. As a designer who can visualize, conceptualize, and create various interior and architectural designs, with an eye for detail and a strong understanding of construction, aim to achieve this holy trinity in all my projects.
I, as an individual, love to learn, explore, travel, and capture timeless images.

Dear Madam/Sir,
This is to declare that Mr D. Vishnu Asrith collaborated with us at WorkshopXD from June 2022 to January 2023 as an Interior Designer.

Before joining our office, I knew Vishnu Asrith as a student of Interior Design at CEPT. His understanding of architectural spaces helped him to detail Interior spaces in coordination with interior detailing.
Later he was collaborating in our office as an Interior Designer. He has a good flare for design. He was very much involved in developing internal spaces & Architectural massing of a temple Design, Residence and a Canopy Intervention. His understanding of Space, detail and ability to transform a thought into a morphological character has been eminent.
His systematic method of working while doing drawings, 3d models and physical models is noteworthy. In his short time, he has worked very hard. He is very punctual, hardworking and focused towards his work. He has contributed positively to Office management & Site management too. He is a team player and always ready to work amidst a good set of people who wish to work sensitively.
His liking towards biking, travelling & photography will help him in his overall development as an Interior Designer. I like his passion for good architecture and spacemaking. He is devoted and focused on the same.
I would strongly recommend him for the positon of Interior Designer. This will help him to be a sensitive human being and understand various aspects of design and execution too.

Experience Center for Jawa,Bengaluru

Typology: Brand Building and Retail deisgn
Guided by: Ruchi MehtaJawa as a brand has a very rich legacy. The trust on the brand was so high that the brand could handle the World War 2 and still manufactured and designed motorcycle in the war time. Jawa has entered India in the mid 19’s and all the people had a great craze about the bike and owning a Jawa had become a status symbol. But later due to some unexpected conditions the manufacturing of Jawa has stopped in India. After a break of 25-30 years Jawa had come back to India in 2017 and started its sales from 2019. Since it was the pandemic time, they couldn’t place themselves properly in the market and not many people knew about this brand and its rich legacy. Now its high time for the people to know about Jawa, its legacy and its history. Spreading awareness about the band and building trust in the customers in the main goal of this experience center. After the re-birth Jawa not only concentrated on its legacy but also about today’s need of the youngsters power, looks and comfortability.

MaterialMatrix | Tangible & Intangible
Typology: Construction and Detail

Guided by: Ayan Khan Pathan
Material plays a very important role in designing. As an architect or a designer, it is very important to have good knowledge of the materials and their finishes available in the city and all over the world. Keeping this in mind, I have propoed a material library with AR and VR in the heritage city of Ahmedabad. Ahmedabad is such a city, which is rich in architects and designers and also the home city of the Pritzker award winner B.V. Doshi. Resulting of this, a lot of architecture and design colleges have been established in the city. The material library acts as the best source for all the students to get access to all the materials and textures available and even connect to the vendors if required.

Hotel Rabong Retreat
Typology: Hospitality Deisgn
Guided by: Prashant Pradhan
The project is all about designing a hotel by taking Newari Architecture as inspiration and also take the immediate context into consideration. The site is located in Rabong village-Sikkim, facing the Rabong valley and the Kanchanzonga Range.
The concept which leads my design process was ‘Porosity’. The term porosity has arrived from invisibility which was derived from the immediate context which is the Rabong Valley





















Academic Internship

Image Square
Typology: Working Drawing
Guided by: Vishal Joshi & Ramesh Patel
In this project we had to design an experience center and produce working and production drawings for the project and for the products designed in the experience center.
Image Square is an experience center of Cameras and Lenses of the brand ‘Canon’ in collaboration with ‘DVA Photography’. As it is an experience center, every product manufactured by the brand should be available to the customer and in a working condition which makes it easier for him/her to take the decision. The products are the hero’s of the store, so they are the one’s to be highlighted. Following this concept the whole center is following a color palette of grays so that the products which are in black gets emphasized by default.

Snooze by the River
Typology: Construction and Detail
Guided by: Jinal Shah
Situated in the core of Ahmedabad city, Sabarmati Riverfront is an extensively used public infrastructure. The project focuses upon understanding the existing infrastructure and exploring potential possibilities for intervention, based upon the needs of the user group. Considering the monotonous long stretch of cycle track, it was evident that the existing infrastructure for halt and refreshments was not sufficient. The project focuses upon conceptualising and designing intermediate refreshment kiosks and stalls which would cater as both, serving stalls and sitting spaces. The design output is a stall which can be deployed and converted into sitting spaces. The sitting is put around the tree-planters to naturally shade the intervention. The users can get a comfortable sitting space in the closed position of the structure, whereas in the deployed state, when it becomes a stall, the height increases and space becomes sufficient to cater to the purpose of selling.

OBSERVATION
1. When the angle of strip is obtuse it results in radial configuration that is circle.
2. The module comes together to form a complete polygon, in order to get the angle of the strip the number of modules is required. Let n be the number of pieces, then 360/n=x, hence 180-x gives the angle. for eg; n=14, then x=25, therefore the angle of the strip is 155 degrees.

Ancillary works
Typology: Co - Curricular
Ancillary works include the works have done in and after my bachelor’s at CEPT University.
They include, few collaborations, lighting installations, workshops, volunteership, competitions, freelancing and last but not the least, the hobbie which has turned into my passion - ‘Photography’

8.1 Inception - In Collaboration with WorkshopXD
This is a proposal for a temple amidst the lush greens of Western Ghats. All that the place carried was people’s faith and a history which had to be accommodated in a new structure. This was to be a new beginning on the pristine land. Hence INCEPTION.




A “beginning” to manicure a small bit of the wilderness, in a way to make it belong to the faith of people. With an ambitious plan set for the context, the design is dealt with utmost caution in terms of material, climate and nature. The site poses itself as an inspiration to the ideation of this temple and elements on the site such as the tree, stream, forest and mountain serve as guidelines. This makes the temple focus not just on the beauty in the sanctum, but also to the surrounding, deciphering faith both ways.
8.2. Tensigrity Lamp - Foundation Day Lamp - 2019
29th Foundation Day Lamp : Conceptualization of this platonic solid undergoes into understanding of tensegrity. Taking combination of compression and tension members , the MS pipes and Cables generates holistic form of an Icosahedron.



It is a rigorous effort of constructing a lamp of 24 edges and 12 vertices. It generates aesthetically functional detailed junctions using various material like MS pipe, MS rods, Cables, Wood, copper sheets, brass rods, etc.

8.3 Power Grid - Navratri Installation



The festival of Navratri is all about dance, music and motion. There is a sense of dynamism in it. The power grid is based on the concept of dynamism - Fluidity that one sees when one stands and sees the installation from different positions. The project was done by a team of 12 students, where I was one of lead member.
Making Process

In light of this straightforward thought power matrix made of 4 boards each by 4ft by 4ft. The size of PVC pipes lessens on a level plane and vertically by 2.7cm while slantingly it was an alternate figuring. The base was of MDF (12mm). The lighting was LED strips lights which were later supplanted by arrangement light due to being all the more simple to deal with and safe. The channels had patterns to let the light turn out and closes were shut by utilizing translucent acrylic to shroud the wellspring of light.










These 4 boards were consolidated with stray pieces and afterward a solid metal casing was made with MS box segment accessible out of the tackboards stands and welded in the workshop. The 4 panels were independently associated with the casing and group the establishment was held tight a divider with links.
These 4 panels were CNC cut alongside the openings for embeddings pipes. The entire thought was to allow the establishment to serve, something other than a lighting component. The component fills in as a board worth taking a gander at even without the nearness of light while utilizing the light features the progression of the point network.
