MUMBAI: Tapur Chatterji, granddaughter of veteran film director Hrishikesh Mukherjee, who made a mark as India’s most formative supermodels in 90’s has recently forayed into design and interiors and launched her own entrepreneur outfit.

With a background in art and architecture from Rachna School Of Art And Architecture, National Award winner Tapur has utilised her decade long experience in the fashion world to breathe aesthetics into her design venture.

Projects for Bollywood actresses Soha Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan already feature as part of the professional repertoire of ‘Tapur Chatterji- Design & Decor’.

Speaking about her foray, Tapur states, “Designing has always been my childhood dream. While modelling was accidental, designing was destined. When I design something I am creating a brand new extension of myself and this process is quite exciting. From an inspiration perspective I love structured patterns that evolve in a fluid and innovative way. There is a lot of Moorish architecture that influences my line of thought.”

Endorsing Tapur’s body of work, Soha adds on, “Tapur designed Inaaya’s nursery and it was perfect. She executed our vision perfectly. She has impeccable taste and is thorough in her work personally overseeing every tiny detail until it is exact. She extends herself beyond the scope of work and is such a wonderful person to work with on something as precious and potentially stressful as designing your baby’s room.”
