In the world of architecture, where trends often overshadow purpose, Ar. Rahul Goel stands apart. As the founder of Space Design Studio, based in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, he has dedicated over a decade to creating spaces that resonate on a deeper level. His viewpoint is simple but deep. His design should not only be seen but also felt, lived, and shared.
Each project undertaken by Space Design Studio is more than a structure. It’s a living story that reflects the people it serves, the environment it inhabits, and the culture it’s built within.
With a tagline that perfectly captures his vision—
“His design living stories—beyond style, beyond time, built for life.”
—Rahul Goel is redefining what it means to create meaningful spaces.
Academic Foundation: Building with Knowledge
Rahul graduated with a bachelor’s degree in architecture from Amity University, Noida, in 2014. From the start, his interest in human-centric design set him apart. This academic foundation gave him both technical skill and an eye for detail—two strengths that define his work today. With 10 years of experience, he continues to grow as a designer who blends creativity with constructability.
The Origin and Evolution of Space Design Studio
In 2015, Rahul founded Space Design Studio with a clear goal: to create spaces that are functional, emotional, and deeply connected to the people who use them. What began with residential and commercial projects soon expanded into institutional, corporate, and hospitality design.
Each year marked a new milestone:
- 2017 – Delivered a major institutional project for Wendy School, Gwalior.
- 2018-2019 – Took on large-scale hospitality and office spaces, earning trust through quality and consistency.
- 2020-2021 – Despite the slowdown caused by COVID-19, the studio grew steadily by strengthening its national execution team.
- 2022 – Ventured into retail design, working with leading brands like Nykaa, Chaayos, Da Milano, and Crossword Bookstores.
- 2024—Shifted focus to sustainable and user-centric design, backed by deeper collaborations and innovative detailing.
Today, the studio continues to thrive across India, driven by the belief that great design is built with intent and integrity.

What Sets Rahul Goel and Space Design Studio Apart
Unlike firms that rely on a “signature style,” Space Design Studio treats every project as a blank canvas. Rahul’s unique philosophy redefines design as a responsive process rather than a visual stamp.
1. Contextual Sustainability
Each structure responds to its specific environment. Instead of generic green building practices, Rahul focuses on climate-responsive design that naturally adapts to its location.
2. Adaptive Futurism
Designs from the studio are built to evolve. Think of facades that shift with seasons or interiors that adjust to lifestyle changes—timeless, yet futuristic.
3. Collaborative Intelligence
At Space Design Studio, design is a team sport. Rahul brings together architects, engineers, sustainability consultants, and craftsmen from the beginning of the project—creating richer, more integrated spaces.
4. Pluralistic Design Process
There’s no fixed style here. Every space reflects the soul of the project, not the ego of the designer. It’s this design democracy that fuels innovation.
5. Architecture that Understands People
Rahul believes spaces should respond to human emotions and behavior. Whether it’s to calm, energize, or inspire, his designs aim to shape how people feel—not just how they function.
A Vision That Goes Beyond Aesthetics
Rahul’s vision is clear. He wants to create architecture that tells personal stories, not just meets technical briefs. He strives to bring soul to structure and clarity to complexity, always balancing creativity with practical execution.
This mindset earned him the IDAC Award for Best Institutional Architect in 2024—a testament to his design excellence and innovation.
