After having been trained as an architect at the Sushant School of Architecture in New Delhi, Lakshmi Chand spent a number of years practicing with design intensive multi disciplinary studios in the city before relocating to Singapore. She spent a number of years in Singapore as a project architect for projects that varied in scale from small residences to larger developmental work. During her time in Singapore, she was responsible for ensuring that projects and their constructional processes were of the highest international standards.
On returning to New Delhi, she started working with Rahoul Singh and is now a partner in the studio RLDA.

Lakshmi has also played an instrumental role in establishing Design x Design, a multi disciplinary platform, that promotes cross pollination of ideas among members of various design fields.
