SP Jain School of Global Management’s Master in Global Luxury Goods & Services Management (MGLuxM) students got the opportunity to gain insights into luxury interiors from industry leader Mahesh Punjabi as part of the Power Talk series.
Mahesh Punjabi, architect, interior designer and CEO of Mahesh Punjabi Associates (MPA), has two decades of experience designing luxury interiors for both residential and commercial premises. His design house has worked on bespoke high-end residences across the UAE, Africa and India. His expertise lies in dishing out ultra-luxury projects and amenities that make for a grand living.
The session was held on March 3, 2020 at SP Jain’s Mumbai campus. Here are the key highlights of what our Luxury Management students learnt:
- The planning process of designing a space tailored to the demands and interests of the customer
- The differences between clientele from Tier I and Tier II cities
- Real-life stories, industry-specific examples and current market trends
- Understanding the millennial drive and how it influences the trends
- Drawing comparisons between minimalistic and vintage/Victorian luxury design concepts
Mr Punjabi showcased some of the most lavish residences to help students understand the approach towards personalised and luxurious home design. He also gave them a chance to use a virtual reality tool to enhance their learning.
