URBAN PLANNERS || ARCHITECTS || INTERIOR DESIGNERS

Inception Design Cell is a Noida-based architecture and urban planning studio founded in 2016 by Ar. Rishabh Sharma and Ar. Ankita Porwal. We design spaces that hold their ground between timeless aesthetics and everyday function — from homes and townships to industrial and hospitality projects across India.

Since our founding, we've delivered 200+ residential projects, township developments (including work for Jindal), 10–15 industrial and factory facilities, and a growing portfolio of commercial and hospitality spaces.

Meet the Principals

Rishabh Sharma

Principal Architect & Urban Planner , B.Arch. · MURP (Honours)

Rishabh's design language sits at the intersection of New Classical and Contemporary architecture. Before founding Inception Design Cell, he worked on landmark international projects including Qatar's Al Bayt Stadium and Al Wajba Palace, along with BIM-led institutional work in the US. His edge is turning a hand sketch into a fully buildable design — precise, technically sound, and true to the original idea.

Ankita Porwal

Ankita leads projects from first concept to final execution, grounded in a deep understanding of Indian construction practices and building traditions. As a certified Vastu consultant, she brings a rare balance of modern planning and traditional wisdom to every design — practical, harmonious, and built for how people actually live.

Our Philosophy

We believe good architecture isn't just about how a space looks it's about how it works, how it lasts, and how it feels to be in. Every project we take on is shaped by that principle: artistic vision, grounded in practical execution.
