About

Hello! I'm Sruthi - a mother, wife, financial consultant, self-taught painter, photographer, ever willing traveler, enjoy playing décor stylist and interior decorator when called upon to do so and a fervent blogger at “The East Coast Desi”.

I’m very passionate about my home and truly believe that my home is a candid manifestation of my family’s combined personalities. Over the years, we have let our hearts dictate our style and have not been deluged by the market trends. The process has been demanding but we’ve enjoyed every aspect of the home making process. Be it meticulously curating, lovingly layering or diligently editing. The end result has been a home with a soul. By surrounding ourselves with things that we absolutely love (like inherited treasures, quirky finds uncovered while scouting the flea markets, objet d’ art found on our travels) we find that it inspires us as a family to live our creative best. And the TECD is an extension of that very aspect.

Launched in 2013,”The East Coast Desi” (TECD) is a creative and resourceful space where I artfully present my home decorating experiences and experiments with spotlight on Indian and Global décor influences. This blog also serves as a repertoire of my artistic visualizations captured through my lens where color, pattern and textures play the lead role.

If you need regular doses of color and design inspiration, The East Coast Desi is the place for you where I serve all this and more in true desi style.
