About me

Exploring Design Through Structure & Story

Hello, I’m Aarushi Patel, currently pursuing my A-Levels at Ahmedabad International School. My passion for art and design has gradually evolved into a deeper fascination with architecture — where creativity meets purpose, and spaces become a medium of human connection.

What began as simple sketches has grown into a pursuit of understanding how people experience form, light, and structure. My academic background has helped me balance creativity with logic, while my artistic explorations have taught me to see design as both expressive and functional.

Engaging in community-based and creative initiatives has shown me that design extends far beyond the studio — it has the power to shape well-being, inspire collaboration, and create tangible impact. Each experience, whether artistic or academic, has strengthened my belief that architecture is not just about constructing spaces, but about crafting environments that evoke emotion, empathy, and meaning.

As I move forward, I aim to continue exploring how architecture can bridge art and science, aesthetics and intention — creating work that is thoughtful, human-centered, and rooted in a sense of purpose.
