About Us
BRIDGING THE LIMINAL BETWEEN FUNCTION AND AESTHETICS
Ether & Sol Design House was founded in late 2017 by Pavithra Datta and Nihar Bandaru in Bangalore, India.
The firm began it’s journey in 2018, by designing interiors for the F&B sector in the Middle East region and designed over 20 restaurants globally in 3 years. With the ability to deliver unique designs in a fast paced environment of the F&B sector, the company soon became the trusted global interior design partner for an award winning brand, Brunch & Cake and has over 15 outlets designed and built globally, since 2021.
In India, the firm’s primary focus has been Architecture and Interior design in the residential sector. From holiday homes to luxury apartments, our portfolio of design is rather varied in style, with each project’s aesthetic being as unique as the end user. By limiting the number of residences we take up each year to allow us to focus on every little detail of the house, we ensure that every project delivered is a bespoke designer home.
The firm has also entered the industrial design sector since 2020, designing manufacturing units of large scale for a private sector company in the aerospace industry.
