Soumil Sharma
Senior Architect
India.
Interior architect and designer with 10 years of professional experience focused on interior architecture, scenography, exhibition design, object design, and material research. His practice is centred on interior space as a medium for narrative and sensory experience, with particular attention to how materiality, light, proportion, and detail shape atmosphere and spatial perception.
Trained in Paris and India, he developed his professional career in internationally recognised contexts, including work at Ateliers Jean Nouvel, where he contributed as an interior architect to projects in which interior design plays a central role in defining spatial identity and experience. This experience reinforced his ability to work within complex, high-profile projects where architecture and interior design are closely intertwined.
He later pursued a Master’s degree in Design Research at ENS Paris-Saclay in collaboration with ENSCI – Les Ateliers, strengthening a research-driven approach to interior architecture. His work explores material experimentation, spatial perception, and the development of atmospheres through analytical and experiential design processes.
Beyond architectural practice, he has developed a strong engagement with exhibition and scenographic environments, designing spatial experiences that translate cultural narratives into immersive interiors. His approach is grounded in the relationship between object, space, and user experience.
Alongside his practice, he co-leads The Silk Road Paris, a curated platform dedicated to contemporary fashion and object designers, reflecting his interest in material culture, craftsmanship, and interdisciplinary design dialogues.
His profile is defined by a sustained focus on interior architecture as a critical and expressive field, combining conceptual clarity with refined sensitivity to atmosphere, materiality, and spatial storytelling.
