Think beyond aesthetics: this panel of 8 leaders brings sustainability, real estate muscle, digital storytelling, and artisanal craftsmanship to the table. From Padma Shri Dr. Gopalan Nair Shankar’s disaster-resilient housing to Sussanne Khan’s luxury interiors and Priyam Saraswat’s viral home tours, this jury is rewriting what ‘great design’ means in India. They’re judging 35+ categories; not just for looks, but for how spaces actually live, breathe, and serve people. If you’re into homes, design, or just curious how India’s living spaces are evolving, this is the squad to watch. The awards? They’re not just celebrating design; they’re shaping it.
