Driven by a longstanding commitment to reviving India’s craft and cultural heritage, Vikram Goyal moves fluidly between tradition and modern expression. With degrees in engineering and development economics from Princeton University, Goyal began his career in finance in the U.S. and Hong Kong. He co-founded Kama Ayurveda, a pioneering Ayurvedic beauty and wellness brand that reshaped India’s indigenous medicinal heritage. Working in close collaboration with master artisans through his eponymous studio and lifestyle brand Viya, Goyal transforms craft from an act of preservation to a space of inquiry. He is represented by leading design galleries, including Nilufar Gallery and The Future Perfect, and has exhibited at major design platforms such as PAD London and Design Miami, reframing Indian craftsmanship into an evolving language with global relevance. Goyal’s first publication, Shringara of Shrinathji, gathers miniature paintings from his grandfather’s private collection — a personal archive that continues to influence his visual vocabulary. His second book, a survey of Indian design post-independence, will be published in 2026.
