2 Nov
Summary
- Gauri Khan began interior design by furnishing Mannat due to budget constraints.
- She has designed homes for celebrities like Karan Johar and Ananya Panday.
- Gauri Khan has also ventured into hospitality with Torii and Fielia.
Gauri Khan's journey in interior design started with her own residence, Mannat. Initially, the family struggled to afford furnishings for the Rs 300-crore property, prompting Shah Rukh Khan to suggest Gauri oversee the interiors. What began as a personal endeavor eventually evolved into a thriving professional career.
Gauri has since lent her design expertise to numerous celebrity homes and commercial spaces. Notable projects include redesigning filmmaker Karan Johar's Mumbai residence and crafting a light and breezy aesthetic for Ananya Panday's first home. Her portfolio also extends to hospitality ventures.
Expanding her creative horizons, Gauri Khan has also ventured into the hospitality sector. She is a restaurateur behind Torii in Bandra and the invite-only cocktail bar Fielia at the Mahalaxmi Racecourse, both in Mumbai. Her firm, Gauri Khan Designs, continues to be a prominent name in luxury design.
