Lakshita Munjal

Lakshita is a designer and visual artist based between London and New Delhi. Having recently completed her MA at the Royal College of Art, her work integrates art and architecture using photography, sculptures and product design. She's shown works across the Bankside Gallery and Southwark Park Gallery in London, and aims to question design and it's representation across multiple mediums.

I like distorting the conventional elements from our built environment

I like to confuse you

I like to capture moments when the city morphs,

into something other than the structural grid it’s meant to hold.

I like to compare our anthropometric scale to those of our skyscrapers and our residing homes

I like to question the language we’ve created to talk about these structures; the ‘room’ has been my recent prey

I like to imagine the city as a lived organism



I want you to observe how the buildings around you make you feel

I want you to notice how you make a ‘room’ everywhere

I want you to question the confusion
