What Design does

Design Inc is a private architecture and design practice headquartered in Udaipur, Rajasthan, India, founded in 2011 by architects Sandeep Jain (B.Arch) and Anup Murdia (B.Arch, M.Plan, CEPT Ahmedabad). The firm offers a vertically integrated design service covering architecture, interior design, product design, and landscape design for residential, commercial, hospitality, and public buildings, with additional capability in urban design and planning. Its practice is built around climate-responsive design and a one-stop, multi-discipline model that takes projects from conceptual planning through detailed design development, technical documentation, and on-site administration consultancy.

The firm operates as a project-based professional services business, generating revenue through consulting fees on bespoke client engagements rather than recurring or productized revenue. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Its go-to-market is direct client engagement, primarily in South Central Rajasthan (Udaipur, Ajmer, Surat, Dungarpur, Mandsaur, Rajsamand), supplemented by a website portfolio and earned media features in publications such as Design Essentia, Architects & Interiors India, Trends Magazine India, Architizer, and Architect Magazine. The firm is registered as a consulting entity with UIT Udaipur, UMC Udaipur, Nagar Parishad Amet, and Rajsamand Municipal Corporation, giving it access to government and municipal planning work in the region.

Design Inc runs with a 1-10 person team, is entirely founder-owned with no outside funding or parent company, and has no disclosed subsidiaries, patents, certifications, or awards. The technology footprint is limited to standard CAD and GIS tools, and there is no evidence of software, platform, or AI capability. The firm is actively operating, with a visible pipeline of eight upcoming projects spanning villa, home stay, boutique hotel, budget hotel, restaurant, commercial complex, agricultural building, and farmhouse categories.
