Co-founder & Creative Director
Sachi
Co-founder. Creator. Problem solver.
“I am drawn to the quieter details: the morning light in a room, a well-loved piece of furniture, a thriving plant in the corner, or the comfort of a thoughtfully designed space. As an interior designer and co-founder of Savistar, I strive to create homes that feel authentic, welcoming, and deeply personal.”
About Sachi
Sachi co-founded Savistar in Gandhinagar in 2020 with Haripriya, after both trained at CEPT University in Ahmedabad. From concepts to execution, from client conversations to the countless decisions behind the scenes, her work as a co-founder has been one of vision, consistency and quiet determination.
She shapes the design language that connects Savistar and its furniture brand SAAG. At Savistar she leads concept and client experience from brief to handover, designing spaces around human scale, light and circulation, with furniture that blends into the architecture rather than competing with it.
At SAAG she leads creative direction for solid-wood furniture that feels calm at first glance and reveals layered craft up close.
