OUR JOURNEY

Two Hearts, One Song

How Bangalore coffee, design sprints, and Fort Kochi rains turned into a lifelong adventure

CHAPTER 01 BENGALURU • 2021

The Indiranagar Coffee Table

Two creative designers meeting across an interactive project deadline in Bangalore. What started over piping hot Chikmagalur filter coffee and indie playlists soon blossomed into evening conversations about Kerala roots, typography, and shared dreams.

CHAPTER 02 VAGAMON & KOCHI • 2023

The Monsoon Trail

From getting joyously drenched in the misty tea plantations of Vagamon to exploring the old spice warehouses of Mattancherry, we knew we had found our lifelong companion and adventure partner in each other.

CHAPTER 03 FORT KOCHI • 2027

The Eternal Promise

Returning to our favourite waterfront to solemnize our vows before God, our families, and our dearest friends. We cannot wait to celebrate this milestone together with each one of you.
