About

A Gurgaon-based studio for spaces shaped by feeling, craft, and proportion.

Aikyum is a Gurgaon-based architecture and interior practice founded by Maanann K Talwar. The studio approaches space as an emotional and sensory experience, balancing restraint with richness through materiality, light, proportion, Indian craft traditions, spatial memory, human behaviour, and ritual.

Places that are experienced gradually, and returned to willingly.

The studio begins with how space is felt, moved through, and remembered.

Restraint with richness

Craft and spatial memory
