I got in touch with Chinky Budhraja from Upside Artist last year to design our first home. Right on the first call, Chinky provided a lot of clarity on her work process and style. She was able to understand our vision and managed to translate it beautifully. She is extremely patient, polite, a good listener and always puts her client's needs first. She is a perfectionist and a go getter and won't compromise on the quality of work. She also keeps a close watch on the budget and always presented us a with a variety of options for all our selections. She works with a lot of integrity, is very approachable and hands on. It was a great experience working with her and the team and I would highly recommend her!

When I started searching for an Interior Designer, I interacted with so many people and organizations before zeroing down to Upside Artist. In the first informal call with Upside Artist, I got a strong impression that they are very friendly, and it would be fun to work with them to design and realize our dream home interior. Due to an early start and slight delay in flat possession, our association with the Upside team went more than 9 months. We had enough time for design discussions and iterating over them and I always felt the same energy & cooperation in every discussion. Throughout the time frame, they were extremely cooperative and flexible to accommodate our time and needs. They have provided enough flexibility to choose and alter the material selection and helped a lot to connect and coordinate different vendors to import the right stuff for our needs. We have decided to use imported marble for our temple with carving over that, and it broke during transport, but the the Upside team has taken as their ownership to make sure to get new Marble delivered without any extra cost. We had some ups and downs during carpentry execution, but in the end, every issue was fixed on time, and with the help of the team Upside, we were able to convert our imaginations to reality as a fully functional home.

Appreciate Upside Artists for their extremely friendly & cohesive working style and getting mingled with you to help to get what you want.

Upside Artist, run by a husband-and-wife duo, is recommended to anyone interested in getting the interior done. They are very professional, client-centric, polite, super-friendly, client focus and very nice team. It’s a rare treat to see a team who are so proficient, diligent and “on it”.

They listened to all our needs and wants. The team's attention to detail was phenomenal. Any and all feedback was thoughtfully considered and addressed. Our final home is perfect. It is incredibly functional while also elegant and stylish. They never seemed they were trying to impose *their* vision on *my* space. They managed to take our vision and make it even better. They produced solutions to meet my needs that we had never considered! There were times when our wants or ideas weren't realistic or there was a better solution. They patiently and professionally walked us through their thinking each time we had questions or concerns. Also, we liked that they didn’t intrude our personal space by asking personal questions. The relationship was very professional. Their 3D renders were awesome.. Their contractors, who execute, are also very good and talented.

Honestly, it was such a pleasant process. I'm not sure we could ask for anything more. We are extremely satisfied and will happily tell others about our experience. would definitely recommend them to anyone. They are professional yet equally personable. Both of them are our friends now 😊

Chinky from Upside Artist, right from her first interaction was very professional and open about how she plans to take up our project. Ours is a 3.5BHK around 1700 sq ft carpet. She has done the complete interior for our flat. She planned initial design meetings meticulously to ensure our needs are understood and accordingly delivered. Our interior was totally customised.

She made each room as per our desired theme. Every room has a distinct design and a story to tell. Chinky, took care of everything... veneer selection, colour combinations, electrical work, laminates, panelling... And the contractor she selected for execution was able to deliver as per our requirement within expected time frame. The quality of delivery had no issues and even after month of delivery she is approachable to resolve some minor issues.

Chinky, ensured our home is designed what we had imagined in our minds. We are very happy and satisfied with the interior design work she did for us.

I strongly recommend her to those who are looking for an interior designer for their home in Pune city.

I wish Chinky and Upside artist team all the very best for their future projects.

Upside artist team is just amazing !
Shraddha and I bought our first 3BHK house, and we were skeptical to what extent we should go with the home décor. Just like everyone else, we both wanted our home to look cozy, peaceful and elegant, but at the same time, I was also expecting decent furniture that could help with a good amount of storage, yet not look too heavy in terms of size and colors. We started looking for the interior designers but weren’t fully satisfied from our preliminary interactions with a few. Luckily, we were directed to Upside Team and then started the journey of transforming our house to a charming and blissful home.
Honestly, at the beginning, we were doubtful if Upside team would even partner with us looking at some of our crazy expectations in terms of design, use of our preferred carpenter, and of course, the budget. Moreover, we presented to them a unique requirement of a spacious Mandir inside our home, to be a completely separate room in our living area, yet not to appear too huge and odd in comparison to the modern design theme expected for the rest of the house. In short, we laid down contradictory conditions of our requirement in front of them, totally realizing the difficulty level, but still expecting them to use some magic to turn this into reality. Against all our thoughts, Upside team graciously accepted to execute our project per our expectations, and just requested for some time to design our Mandir, which both Shraddha and I were also personally unsure whether it was even feasible to have it.
We then started a series of our meetings to finalize the design of each section of the house (keeping the Mandir area aside). There wasn’t a single point left unexplained to us during each of these meetings, no matter if it required sparing additional time to help make us understand things better. The best part is that they would tirelessly continue to explain their concepts until they get convinced about our understanding and assured that they had our free consent on any design vs. an agreement on something under influence (Mandir design still awaited).
Next came the execution part which I thought was going to be a bit stressful for everyone, because designer's team was supposed to work with our preferred carpenter. Regardless of their experience on such type of arrangements, we were still afraid about the trust and the bonding between our carpenter (looking at some of his expectations) and their team, which was paramount for the project’s success. But again, no wonder, the Upside team handled the relationship/management all alone ensuring a seamless blend between the teams to achieve the goal on time.
By the time we finished 80% of the work, Upside team presented to us their first (which also turned out to be the final) design of the Mandir! It had a beautiful and a perfect blend of aesthetics, coziness, harmonious design and hardware mechanism, which was completely beyond our expectations. Indeed, the Mandir (being our worship place) is supremely close to our hearts, but it has become the most incredibly attractive segment of our home for all our visitors too. They simply can’t hold off taking pictures of the Mandir and we just love their happiness, compliments and blessings for us. A special bow to the Upside team for building this Mandir, which is not just a structure, but a living part of our home.
Upside team, once again Shraddha and I thank you immensely for transforming our dream into reality and for converting our house into a charming and a radiant livable home. Your ability to balance modern trends with timeless elegance is truly commendable. Our home feels current yet timeless, ensuring it will remain relevant for years to come. Thank you!

We bought our first home and of course it was a very special moment for us. Both me and husband are in the creative field so we wanted our house a certain way, full of creativity and attention to details.
We searched a lot for a good interior design studio but were not happy with the many that we found. Then my husband stumbled upon about Upside Artist. We contacted them and something immediately clicked. What we liked the most about them was their honesty and willingness to create something unique and personalized.
From the first day itself the team impressed us with well chalked out timeliness, and great ideas.
They were open to our ideas, changes we suggested and were equally excited to work on our house to make it our dream home.
The team delivered in time and we got the exact home we had imagined. We are very happy with our space and can never think of switching firms whenever we have any interior design work in the future.
A big shoutout to the founders for their open mindset, creativity and precision in the interior design world! 👏

When we were looking for an Interior Designer for our newly purchased 3.5 bhk, we had very specific idea of what our home should "feel" like, so our search zeroed in on a select few in the Baner area. The process of finally going with one was then a function of cost, timelines and whether we felt the designer really "understood" our taste and needs. With some of them, the very first meeting concluded with they handing out agreements that they wanted us to sign, without even discussing details of what the design would be like! With some others we were given a specific budget number without which the designer would not even come for a meeting. And then there were some who quoted ridiculously low prices to get the project, which in itself felt like a warning .Obviously this was something very off putting and we started thinking if any designer would even give enough time to listen to us.
A chance look at Upside Artist's insta channel and pics of their completed projects had me hooked. And when I placed a call to Chinky and requested for a meet, my worries started vanishing. Here was a designer who came in to have a first look at the apartment and immediately gave a number of ideas , while also trying to understand our taste and our family's requirements. While no1 else even discussed any sort of ideas without looking at first payment, Upside Artist was a welcome find :) needless to stay we decided to go with Chinky for designing our home.

What followed were very organized and well planned online discussions on 3D designs, multiple iterations with Chinky giving enough time to each room's details. The placement of furniture, color scheme, kind of curtains, electric switches, and lighting, all was discussed in complete detail and transformed into detailed drawings. The whole design process took almost a month, as Chinky had communicated at the outset. This was followed by a completed budget estimate "according to the design" and discussion on whether we were comfortable with it or need to modify design to fit into our budget. After the estimates were finalized, immediately after execution started on site. We were very clear that we need to move in within 3 months and the team adhered to schedule. Chinky was always very organized in terms of parallel tasking so that laminates , tiles, selection etc happened without wasting any time. She accompanied us on all selections, suggested a number of shops/vendors and dedicated a lot of time so that we were always 100% satisfied with our selection. The result was that the team onsite was never waiting on anything, decisions were made quickly and material arrived in time for team to execute and complete on time.

I had some specific ideas like a brick wall, art work inside pooja cabinet and also art work at entry foyer. Chinky is very resourceful and has a great network and helped to find the right vendors /artists for all of these , well within budget. There were multiple instances when we were going to do a particular decor thing a certain way, and Chinky suggesting doing it another way, saving us time and money!!

At the completion of the site work, her team also was always on call to correct any minor issues and we never had any issues with getting their support.

We love our dream home and have been getting compliments by one and all who visit. Thanks to Chinky and her team!

Highly recommend Upside Artist!

These guys are geniuses..!
I'm not someone who will write any kind of feedback so easily. But the work these guys have done for us made me write this to appreciate their efforts and creativity..

I still wonder and thank god for the day when I 'accidentally' found the Upside artist's profile (I was not actively looking for any designer..).
I was just browsing online to get some ideas about kitchen planning and somehow landed on their YouTube channel. Just a glimpse of one of their projects, and I was almost (90%) convinced that I've found the right people for the job.. Made an online enquiry via their website and got a call back the very next day. A brief discussion with Chinky, and then there were no more doubts. I was sure that I don't need to worry about space-planning, creativity in design, quality of materials, rather anything..

To be honest, our initial plan was just to get the kitchen done but still asked her to prepare a rough plan (..and tentative budget) for the whole interior. That's when Ankit stepped in with his creative ideas. When we saw the proposal, there was no turning back. We had to do it, that was the power of that 'rough' design. One most important thing to mention here is - usually designers provide an unrealistically low budget quotation just to get the project but then the overall project cost goes high as per actual pricing.. That was not the case with these guys. The tentative quotation and the final project cost are almost the same.

Design-wise we wanted Indian touch in design but at the same time it should be easy to maintain/clean (i.e. no carving, too much texture...), and they incorporated both requirements so creatively that the whole design looks so seamless and inline with an artistic touch.

Ankit looked after the whole execution process and made sure every minute details were taken care of. We had so many queries during selection but both of them were so supportive, patient and composed while answering them.
Both are so so so friendly which made the whole process a fun filled experience rather than just a business project.

Thank you so much Ankit and Chinky.. and wish you all the best for your future projects..

We worked with miss Chinky Budhraja to design and build the interiors of our newly constructed duplex at Western Hills, Baner.
She was very punctual, responsive and committed from the first day of the project till the end.
She is a rare talent for creative and logical minds. My kids' rooms are well designed, with ample space for studies and games, and beautiful wardrobes.
The selection of furnishing, lighting and colour combination of the living room was awesome, we made many iterations but she was very patient. `
We wanted a sleek and elegant look at the house and she has done an outstanding job, we all were stunned by the final look of the home.

The Upside Artist team has transformed our home completely in to a dream home!! Our home was a 10-year hold fully furnished flat and it had it's own challenges of making the optimum use of the existing furniture and fixtures, of which Chinki and her team did a great job. Her passion for her work speaks volumes in the complete makeover she gave to our home. Chinki was personally present in helping us make important choices in the renovation of our home. Highly recommended!!!

Honestly, I can't believe how easy this process was. Although I was a little nervous about trying to work through the entire process online, I quickly learned those fears were unwarranted. Communication throughout the entire process was seamless and Chinky was so patient with us. 
From picking the appropriate shopping items to fine-tuning the final renderings. It was an awesome experience. 

Totally happy with the service provided by Chinky Budhraja ( Upside Artist). She puts herself in your shoes and really thinks of every possibility. She works to create a plan of action with different options and varying budgets. 

I highly recommend Upside Artist for your interior design needs.

Highly recommended.

Got the interior work done for my 3bhk by Upside Artist. Post work I can say they are very creative in design. The designer were very cooperative, honest and transparent. Thank you for the best experience. Highly recommended.

After checking for an interior designer for almost 4 months we went to upside artist interior design firm and finalized them in the first visit because of their transparency and good feedbacks from our friends.

The Team has good expertise in interior and their ideas of what would be good for the long run and would be practical are of great help. All the vendors and labours are really sincere and honest. We were completely satisfied with the result and also the process of designing where we were involved with them for multiple meeting to finalize the designs. Thanks to the entire team for brilliant work.

Also I would like to thanks for styling our home and giving great suggestions to enhance the over-all look of our house.

The truly professional interior designing team especially the Principal designer of the design firm. Her discussion about each and everything regarding any new design and styling idea with me assured me that there will be no confusion in the execution of any new design idea. So overall a truly recommended interior design company especially if anyone looking for a residential interior design in the Pune region.

We had a very wonderful experience getting our Dream Home Delivered with so much ease. I would like to thank the entire team of upside for what they are doing, Specially, I would like to thank Chinky with whom we interacted initially and how wonderfully and Professionally she worked with us. Her matured Thinking, High-Class Design Approach and understanding our minute requirements and suggesting us the right solution, resulted in us our desired Home.

the way they worked with us, we got attached and she took the initiatives way beyond as per the scope from her job.

I also would like to thank the execution team who provided the best technical support and got all our problems solved with ease. At the end of my review, I would say apart from getting things done with ease, there is some Magic with upside which makes things look different and much more wonderful.
