Hello!

I’m Sheefalika, a material-driven designer with over a decade of experience across textiles, architectural surfaces, and spatial design.

I apply a structured design process—research, development, and refinement—to translate material potential into tangible outcomes. I guide material decisions across stakeholders, aligning vision, performance, timelines, and budgets.

I build clear CMF strategies and process frameworks that align aesthetics, function, brand positioning, and execution.

My work is shaped by traditional practices of making. I collaborate with craftspeople to translate craft knowledge into contemporary, responsible design solutions.

Key Highlights

- Led and delivered bespoke architectural flooring projects up to 20,000 sq. m across airports, hospitality, museums, and commercial spaces across India, including Mumbai T2 and Kolkata Airport.

- Designed textiles for export to brands such as Pierre Frey and award-winning Indian brands including Jaipur Rugs and Vriksh Design.

My work comes together through two parallel bodies of practice:

Grounded by Design [Floorscapes]

Grounded by Roots [Practices of making]
