New Delhi, India — October 22, 2026 — Indian design house Nicael Designs has officially launched its debut furniture collection, merging the precision of automotive engineering with high-end interior architecture.
Founded by Nicael Jeffrey and Digvijay Singh Kushwaha, the brand steps into the luxury furniture segment with a rare premise: treating furniture not just as interior filler, but as collectible, engineered art.
When Automotive Architecture Meets Interior Design
Every item in the collection was born from a singular question posed by the design team: What happens when the discipline of automotive engineering meets the language of furniture?
“Every piece began with a question — what happens when the discipline of automotive engineering meets the language of furniture? The answer became our first collection,” said Nicael Jeffrey, Co-Founder and Chief Design Officer, trained at Politecnico di Milano.
Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer Digvijay Singh Kushwaha added that the launch addresses a growing demand for precision-crafted, scalable Indian luxury: “We didn’t set out to just build furniture. We wanted to build a business that could deliver design at this level of precision, consistently, at scale — pieces people ask about, built by a brand that can be trusted to deliver them.”
Crafted entirely in India, the lineup relies on industrial-grade materials built to outlast fleeting interior trends:
- High-grade stainless steel
- Carbon fibre
- African amethyst and semi-precious stone
- Automotive custom paint finishes
- Solid wood and hand-stitched leather

Why This Launch Matters for Indian Collectible Design
As homegrown Indian studios claim a larger voice in global contemporary design, Nicael Designs differentiates itself through restraint, micro-production runs, and a refusal to compromise on mechanical tolerances. Rather than mass-producing, they approach furniture building the way boutique coachbuilders approach hypercars: finite, numbered, and built to command a room.
