Komal Jha

Komal Jha is an architectural journalist and co-founder of Design Unfiltered. She focuses on documenting emerging design voices across India, especially from tier-2 and tier-3 cities. Through her work, she highlights stories that often remain underrepresented in mainstream architecture media.

With over 7 years of experience in journalism and communication, she has worked with platforms such as News Nation and VK News Official. Over time, she transitioned into architectural storytelling to explore deeper narratives within the built environment.

At Design Unfiltered, she helps create a platform where architects and designers can share their ideas openly. In addition, the initiative brings together professionals through conferences, curated events, and meaningful conversations. As a result, it encourages collaboration and knowledge sharing within the design community.

She believes that architecture is not just about buildings. Instead, it is about people, processes, and cultural context. Therefore, her work focuses on uncovering diverse perspectives and regional narratives that shape design in India.

Moreover, Design Unfiltered continues to grow as a space for learning and exchange. Through this platform, she remains committed to honest storytelling and inclusive design dialogue across the country.
