A year ago I was living on my own for the first time, and Swarnima helped in that transition and in making that place my own. She sat with me. She understood all my details, and she made the place exactly feel like my own reflection.

It felt personal, practical, and beautiful at the same time. Interior projects are usually expected to be stressful, but she handled everything with such professionalism and ease.

She understands your requirements just perfectly. And the quality of work is never compromised no matter what.

The First Thing I Ask

“How long are you planning to live here?”

Because that answer changes what I recommend. Renting for a year? I pick pieces that move with you. Staying put? We build for this space.

Either way — nothing you buy should be wasted when you leave.

Who Is This For

Is this a right fit for you?

Yes, if
  • You've just moved to a new city and the house is empty
  • You're renting and don't want to spend big on something you'll leave behind
  • You can afford it, but you'd rather spend over six months than in one weekend
  • You're living with family and want your own room, or the common areas, to feel like you
  • You're saving to buy your own place and want this one to feel like home meanwhile
  • You have the budget and the Pinterest board, but no time and no idea where to start
No, if
  • You want a renovation. Civil work, false ceilings, modular kitchens, anything needing a contractor
  • You need structural or plumbing changes. Moving walls, bathrooms, electrical points
  • You want me to buy things for you. I don't purchase, deliver or install. I tell you exactly what to buy and where from, and you order it

Why this exists

Whether you moved in last week or last year, it still doesn't feel like your home.

Not because you don't care. Because you can't drill into the walls, or you're not sure how long you'll stay, or you open a furniture website and there are four hundred sofas with no way to know which one fits your room. But you end up choosing the same ugly grey sofa because that feels safe.

Here's what most people miss: you're already spending. A bed, a sofa, a chair, a study table — you need these things whether you own the place or not, whether you're here for one year or ten. That money is going out either way.

The only question is whether you give any thought to it before you make a purchase.

When it does, those same purchases start feeling like yours.

One of my clients put it simply in a review: there weren't many service providers for this at the time. She's right. Most designers won't take this on — it's too small, there's no site work to manage, and there's nothing in it for them if you're buying your own furniture.

I do it because someone should.

And because everyone should feel at home wherever they choose to stay.

What You Get

The plan, start to finish

A short form to tell me about your space, then I'll message you on WhatsApp within a day to confirm it's a fit. We get on a 45 minute call — here's what lands in your hands 10 days later.

01

A to-scale floor plan with furniture placement

Drawn from your real dimensions. You'll see exactly what goes where, so nothing arrives and turns out to be too big.

02

A room by room plan

Every space, with the pieces, colours and textures chosen for it, and how it all sits together.

03

A complete shopping list with links

Every item, with a link, a price and a note. Split into what to buy and what to rent, because renting some things makes far more sense in a home you don't own.

04

A month by month buying plan

Nobody furnishes a house in one weekend. I tell you what to buy first, what can wait, and what to add over the next six months.

05

Rental safe flags on everything

Marked no drill, removable, or landlord safe. And marked for whether it moves with you or stays behind.

06

Your own pace, after that

Once the plan is in your hands, there's no deadline. Buy month one, month three, whenever suits you — it never expires.

Pricing

Every space is different.

Price depends on the size of the space, how complex the design is, and how much of my time it needs — so I don't put a flat number here. Tell me about your home and I'll get back to you with a clear, honest quote.

What's Not Included
My Promise

You and me, one team

Zero commissions.

I don't take a rupee from any brand, vendor or shop I recommend. Not one.

No vendor preference.

I recommend what's right for your space and your budget, not what pays me.

Complete honesty during selections.

If something you love is a bad idea, I'll say so.

A flat fee that doesn't move with your spend.

Whether you spend one lakh or six, I'm paid the same. So I have no reason to push you upward.

You and me, one team.

That's the whole idea.

Who I Am

A note from Swarnima

Swarnima Jain, Founder — Moody Muse

I'm Swarnima, and I run Moody Muse.

I design full homes for a living, the kind with site visits and contractors and eight month timelines. I started doing these plans because people kept asking me for them and couldn't find anyone willing to help.

It turned out to be some of my favourite work. So now it's a proper offering.

FAQ

Questions, answered

I work most closely in Mumbai, Bengaluru and Gurgaon, where I can arrange a measurement visit for you. The design work is entirely remote, so if you already have a floor plan of your home, I can work with you anywhere in India.

Most people don't. I'll arrange someone to measure your home. Around ₹5,000, paid directly to them, takes about an hour.

50% to begin and 50% before I hand over the final files. I'll send you a payment link on WhatsApp. I never ask for the full amount upfront.

Yes, and I'd encourage it. Tell me what you're keeping and I'll plan around it.

Two rounds of revisions. After that the plan is final.

Furniture prices and stock move constantly. I give you current prices at the time of delivery and alternates where I can, but I can't control what a brand does next month.

Yes. Wait until you've signed. I need the real dimensions to plan anything useful.

Your home doesn't have to wait until you own one.
