Established in an era when architectural lighting - as a discipline, was still in its infancy in India, Design Matrix helped to pioneer lighting design in this field.
We have come a long way.
And much like the discipline and its recognition, we too have grown, matured and expanded our horizons.
Today, we have a portfolio of nearly two hundred completed and on-going projects worldwide; successfully ventured into the design of objects and bespoke experiences; with our core office in New Delhi, we now have nodal offices across Mumbai, Bengaluru & Sydney; and are certified under the ISO 9001: 2015 quality standard.
The most satisfying achievement of all, however, has been our long-standing relationship with our clients, built on our shared values of integrity, professionalism and respect. This, and our expanding client base, bears testimony to the quality, creativity and ingenuity of our work.
