AD India Hosts Intimate Dinner Marking a New Editorial Chapter

The July–August 2026 issue of Architectural Digest India marks a new editorial chapter as the first issue conceived and led by Mrinalini Ghadiok, Head of Editorial Content.

Anchored by a cover story on Rajeev Sethi—one of India’s most influential cultural thinkers—the issue celebrates his five-decade career spanning museums, exhibitions, architecture, public art, cultural policy and the revitalisation of craft traditions.

To mark both Mrinalini’s editorial debut and Rajeev Sethi’s remarkable legacy, AD India hosted an invite-only evening at his New Delhi home, bringing together leading voices from the city’s architecture, design, art and cultural communities. The residence itself—an archive of ideas, objects and memories built over a lifetime—offered guests a rare glimpse into a living archive of Indian design and craft history.
