Viral Kenia — Co-Founder

I walked away from a 4-year IT career to chase an impossible dream: building India's first premium outdoor design empire. 19,500 transformations later, celebrities and sports icons trust us with their most ambitious visions. When I left my corporate IT career, friends thought I was crazy. But something was calling me beyond spreadsheets and server rooms - a vision to revolutionize how India experiences outdoor living.

Today, HVT Interiors India has transformed spaces for: → Celebrity homes across Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore → Sports infrastructure for national-level facilities → Premium residential projects in 15+ cities → Corporate campuses for India's top brands 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝘄. Whether it's a rooftop garden for a film star or a cricket academy's outdoor facilities, we don't just design spaces - we craft experiences that bring people together. 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, I'm passionate about leadership, entrepreneurship, and the art of building teams that deliver excellence. When I'm not designing spaces, you'll find me exploring new cities, discussing spirituality, or sharing insights on what it takes to turn visions into reality.
