Senior Writer — Garden & Kitchen

Kushal E covers gardens, kitchens and the parts of a home where daily use decides whether a design was any good. He came to writing from horticulture, and he still keeps a working balcony garden in Bengaluru that doubles as a test bed for most of what he publishes — which is why his plant guides tend to mention the things that failed as well as the ones that worked. On the kitchen side he focuses on modular layouts, storage that survives real cooking, and the honest maintenance cost of the surfaces everyone falls in love with in a showroom. He is happiest writing the article that saves someone from an expensive, good-looking mistake.
