In the vibrant realm of design and architecture, Supreeth Billakanti, the Director and Owner of Yahvisri Infra in Hyderabad, Telangana, brings a unique blend of passion and creativity. Since childhood, Supreeth’s fascination with design and fashion, coupled with unwavering support from his mother, laid the foundation for his journey in the industry.
Established in 2018, Yahvisri Infra has evolved into a dynamic entity, specializing in turnkey projects for residential spaces, pubs, resto-bars, and restaurants. Recent expansions include ventures into crafting innovative office spaces. The impact of the firm extends beyond aesthetics, playing a crucial role in providing essential services that positively influence society.
Supreeth’s specialization lies in modern designs infused with a touch of Indian arts, offering a unique blend of tradition and contemporary aesthetics. Rather than merely solving problems, the firm’s focus is on reviving Indian heritage and art forms, making each project a celebration of cultural richness.
The firm’s unique selling proposition (USP) lies in its commitment to prioritize client preferences. For Supreeth, client satisfaction takes precedence over fame or financial gains. Looking ahead, the vision is to further strengthen the brand and establish branches across Telangana, driven by a commitment to excellence and client contentment.
The journey into entrepreneurship was fueled by a combination of passion and a desire to carve out a distinctive niche in the field. Frank Lloyd Wright, revered for the depth and details in his designs, serves as a professional inspiration.
Challenges are an inherent part of entrepreneurship, and for Supreeth, each project presents its unique set. Experience becomes the best teacher, with lessons learned from navigating diverse client needs and overcoming project-related hurdles.
Essentials for starting the business, according to Supreeth, include passion, hard work, effective communication skills, and collaborative efforts with both clients and employees. The identification of opportunities stems from a belief that the work should speak for itself, coupled with a commitment to staying updated with new design trends.
What sets Supreeth apart is his emphasis on practical knowledge acquired beyond formal education. His keen interest in new and trending designs allows him to stand out, while a commitment to out-of-the-box thinking defines his professional approach.
Among the projects close to his heart, the Snort Club stands out as a significant achievement, earning him the Blindwink Best Design 2023 award. The firm’s commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly practices is evident in every project, with a belief in integrating greenery and sustainability regardless of client acceptance.
Understanding client psychology is considered paramount for success, with Supreeth emphasizing the importance of designing spaces aligned with clients’ needs and desires. The ultimate reward, he notes, lies in the happiness reflected in their eyes.
As an entrepreneur, Supreeth’s key takeaways include the virtues of patience, understanding, and active listening. His message to budding architects and designers is clear – believe in yourself, prioritize passion and hard work over monetary gains, and stay abreast of new design trends.
A notable achievement for Yahvisri Infra is the Blindwink Best Design 2023 award for the Snort Club & Kitchen, marking a significant milestone in the firm’s journey.
