ABOUT ME
WELCOME TO STUDIO VYAS
Hi, I’m Shivani—an interior designer, design writer, and the blogger behind this sky-blue page. I’m so glad you’re here, friend! It’s lovely to “e-meet” you. I’m a 30-something celebrating Southern life in Macon, Georgia—a historic city known for its cherry blossom-lined streets and old homes with stories to tell. I have a deep love for all things classic and traditional, with a heartfelt nod to my Indian heritage. Think: monogrammed bed sheets, J.Crew, Tuckernuck, preppy motifs, hydrangeas in chinoiserie vases, scenic oil paintings (with mangos, curry, turmeric, and a little Bollywood sprinkled in!). So if any of that makes your heart skip a beat—you’re in good company here! And as a designer, I’ve always believed a home should feel timeless—designed once, loved forever (no trends, please). Around here, you’ll find me sharing the behind-the-scenes of my creative life—from beautiful interiors and new stories to little things that spark joy along the way. And if you’re looking for design services, head over to the loveliest boutique interior design studio located in the heart of Macon—The Selective Design—where I help lead design and operations alongside founder Meredith McKenzie.
