“When we decided the renovate our home we wanted to take help of an interior decorator. We had few names to choose from. Navmiti designs were one of them. We were lucky to get chance to visit two homes which were decorated by Navmiti Designs. We then zeroed-in on Navmiti Designs.
We told them roughly what we are looking for. They then came out with few schemes. We selected features from different schemes and the work started. Full coordination & execution was done by Navmiti Designs. They monitored the project closely and meticulously. Despite budgetary constraints they came out with ideas that suited our needs. They storage space is also made in abundance without making the appearance very loud. They also suggested to use some of existing furniture as it still matched with new look. They were not suggesting any thing extravagant to inflate the budget. They have lot of contacts who supply furnishings. This helped us to manage our expenses within budget.
The whole project was managed professionally and timely. Our house has transpired into a new and modern looks and still is simple. We are very happy with Mr. Amit Gadgil for his advice and consideration of our ideas.”

“Dear Shalaka,
We would like to thank you for your whole hearted efforts in designing our dream abode at urban space. It has been a wonderful experience working with you. Your creativity helped us in achieving our goal. We appreciate your attitude towards your work. We were never treated like just another client and our home like just another site. You gave importance to the slightest detail while planning as well as execution. You understood what we wanted and tried your best to plan accordingly. Your team of workers were very polite and cordial. Workmanship is excellent. We would like to thank you again for all your efforts and wish both Amit and you the very best always.”

“A big thanks to Amit and Shalaka who designed our home in Bavdhan. Throughout the planning they took care of our specific requirements.
We have 2 older children so designing their space to suit their likes was a very important aspect when decorating the house and we must say they did a great job.
Storage was the other important factor and without making the house look packed they made some very smart storage spaces.
In fact we were so happy with their work, we had them design our new office space in Sinhagad road. And we were not disappointed at all.
We will surely work with them again and wish them the very best!!”

“The Job was to carry out total renovations & Interiors of our 30 year old ancestral house on Bund Garden road, Pune, my job profile requires a lot of travelling, so I needed someone who was trustworthy and who could manage the show in my absence! Amit Gadgil was truly GOD SENT!
Amit immediately understood my style of the house we wanted to achieve, and his advice and guidance proved invaluable. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of suppliers, extensive product knowledge and professional demeanor which added to the overall experience. Importantly Amit is delightful to work with, listens to his clients demands and doesn’t suffer from the ego issues which seem to pervade the profession.
I would highly recommend Navmiti Designs uniquely, remarkable services!”
Capt Abhay Nimbalkar
“Shalaka and Amit from Navmiti designs helped me transform my apartment into a fabulous home which has a warm, inviting and bright feel to it. They followed my contemporary taste to the tee within my budgetary constraints. They have an eye for detail and have created smart storage solutions for me throughout the house. They are very professional in their approach and the whole project was managed in a timely and efficient manner. The duo make a winning team and I would definitely work with them if I move into a new home!!”

“Shalaka, she has helped me do my two homes in the last seven years and both times she has done a wonderfull job, which me and my husband dilip are very happy with, and it was done with lot of care and thought to our likeings and mainly our budget. The outcome is just what we wanted our house to be. She always gives you lot of choices for everything, and never forces you do things which you don’t want to do or choose. She always tells you, you are going to stay in this house so we will do what you want, and it is very very important for a architect to have this quality. Which will make you happy later when the architect finishes with his/her work and you start staying in house. Amit also helped us sometimes when I could not decide on some points, and i value that a lot. I hope I don’t have to shift again, but if I have to then I will always think of shalaka only. Our best wishes with you always, Amit and shalaka.”

“The need to make your house feel more ‘homely’ is ineluctable; that it should reflect your persona, your identity, your being – to say the least. Self-proclaimed designers that we were, my husband and I spent hours combing the web, going through a lot of landscape designs, patios, kitchen, bathroom whose increasing grandeur intimidated us and left us dumbfounded. After much deliberation, we decided to get professional help in our pet project. Mr. Amit Gadgil was recommended from a very trusted source. Amit gave a rationale approach – by not destroying our fantasies for a contempo classy home as well as something to co-exist with our current infrastructure.
We were provided with a variety of options of Layout Designs to choose from. Like a true gentlemen, he would patiently hear us out. His innovative designs and unconventional ideas are praiseworthy. Accommodating our varied interests was a challenging task for him. He did it with ease and lot of patience.
Most importantly, he has a great team working for him. We took help from him for the complete Civil work, Plumbing, False Ceiling, Kitchen Trolleys, Stainless Steel Railing work. By personal choice and experience we hired independent agencies for Electrification, Carpentry, Painting, Aluminium Windows and Fabrication work. He liaised with all the agencies & coordinated the work well. Due to this, the work could be carried out in a hassle free manner. We were highly impressed with his aesthetic sense choice of color combinations, imagination and artistry. I would like to point out his special contribution in the house lighting.
Our house underwent a metamorphosis into a beautiful home and Amit Gadgil has made a significant contribution for the same.”
Aarti & Sanjay Parkhi
“First of all congratulations on the Navmiti Designs Website!!

The best part about working with you is that you are very accommodating when it comes to our ideas and have given us multiple options to choose from.
Look forward to you designing our new home!!
All the very best to Navmiti Designs..”

“Our experience of engaging Navmiti Designs for renovation of our home couldn’t have been better. The design and consultancy services provided by this company exceeded our expectations. The major differentiator that we observed was the professional, at the same time, flexible approach and high degree of customer-centric demeanor. In our project, Navmiti truly played the role of a consultative partner and provided us with lot of personalized attention. We are highly impressed with Navmiti’s ability to ‘deliver to promise’ which is an important hallmark of a reliable organization, particularly in the service industry.
We had a varied experience of dealing with different agencies through Navmiti. The carpentry team is very good and barring couple of challenges, they delivered services to our satisfaction. The guys are sincere and Kishor and Santosh, in particular, know how to manage the client expectations. We did not find the performance of the painting and polishing team consistent enough and even though they did a reasonable job, they are way too short of the trustworthiness. We observed a tendency for being defensive about accepting the customer feedback. Rajesh (Yadav’s son – painter) and Yadav’s brother (polishing expert) are exception to this observation and both of them demonstrated a customer-savvy conduct. The approach of an electrician was not advisory enough and they postponed the work beyond reasonable limit. POP guys were very hard working and the quality of their services was exceptionally great. The glass vendor is highly professional and came across as a dependable source with lot of counseling ability in his domain.
Overall we would like to put our experience of working with Navmiti at 4.5 on a scale of 1-5 and we would not have any hesitation of engaging them again for our future requirements. We would be also more than happy to provide their reference to our family and friends. ”

“I purchased the garden flat primarily because of high ceiling and attached garden, which was a cherished desire having stayed in bungalows during my childhood. However the house looked dark, dingy and devoid of positive energy. Having led the real estate infrastructure expansion of TCS and Airtel over 17 years I was of the firm view that a good architect can convert it into a dream home for me.
Today I am more than satisfied at the transformation of old flat into a vibrant home. Major credit goes to Shalaka for her design ingenuity, choice of material and above all grasping our (better half included) mind. At each stage of design and construction she encouraged us to spell out our requirement and modulated it with her vision and architectural skills. I also appreciate her patience in engaging us to convey her point of view in spite of repeated change of minds!
The end result is a home full of space, exciting décor and a made to order living facilities. She has an eye for every detail, maintained the class and met all our requirements. It did exceed the budget but no doubt a great value for money. Her idea of niches and the confluence of décor and illumination keep every visitor spell bound.
Thanks, Shalaka, for your smart work !!”

“Our 2 BHK flat at Shriniwas Kapilvastu Building at Karve Nagar was designed by Shalaka and Amit. After seeing our flat, many other flat owners from the same building approached them and asked them to do the interiors of their flats. We are now upgrading to a 3 BHK flat and it was a unanimous decision in our family to call Shalaka and Amit once again to do the interiors. It is due to the confidence that both of them have been able to generate through their work. I am sure they will do an excellent job for our new 3BHK flat.”
Preeti & Tushar Joshi
“Shalaka and Amit are very methodical and detail oriented in their work. I like the flexibility that they offer by sharing designs on emails. They have a collection of great interior design ideas and are open to the suggestions given by the client. When we were working on my house, I provided them with some custom designs and I am very satisfied that my ideas have been implemented to the tee and the outcome is just what I had wanted. Another thing I like about Amit and shalaka is that they will come up with ideas and suggestions to make the plan fit your budget. Happy to be associated with you guys! All the best!”

“My grandmother visited me yesterday. She was thrilled to see the changes. While talking to her I recollected once again what a change you have made. You have a great team. Your workers are polite and hard working. The most important thing being, you know how to bring out the best in them. Your style of work took into account all my needs and my ideas and my dreams. You have given them a tangible and practical outcome within my budget. I cannot stop before acknowledging the help in picking out the lights, sofa, etc. Thank you.”
