Bio
Manish Kotwani
Karuna did a fabulous job; not for a moment were we (me and my better half Esha) were let down, she not only managed to get the best out of the workmen but also managed to beat us on our expectations of her. Her taste was simple yet elegant; even 3 years after the house has been done, the interior’s look tasteful and evergreen. Even now we at times just sit chatting late in the night admiring the house. We wonder; when we would plan to do our second renovation, would there be something to beat the current standards.
