Founder Magazine
In the dynamic world of interior design, where creativity meets functionality, Mohammed Mudabbir has carved a niche for himself as a trailblazing entrepreneur. The founder and CEO of ONNEXT Interios, Mudabbir has transformed his passion for design into a thriving business with a ₹15 crore turnover, a remarkable leap from his initial investment of just ₹10 lakhs.
Starting his entrepreneurial journey at the young age of 21, Mudabbir’s relentless drive and strategic vision have positioned ONNEXT Interios as one of the fastest-growing interior design firms in India. Today, at 37, he stands as a testament to what unwavering determination, innovation, and business acumen can achieve.
The Genesis of ONNEXT Interios
Born with an innate flair for design, Mudabbir pursued a Diploma in Interior Designing followed by an MBA, equipping himself with both creative and managerial expertise. His early career was marked by hands-on experience in the industry, where he honed his skills in space planning, material selection, and client-centric execution.
In 2019, he took the bold step of launching ONNEXT Interios with a clear mission: to redefine interior spaces by blending aesthetics, functionality, and affordability. Unlike traditional firms that catered only to high-end clients, ONNEXT Interios democratized luxury by offering customized, high-quality interiors accessible to diverse budgets.
The Turning Point: Scaling with Expertise
While the initial years saw steady growth, Mudabbir recognized that sustainable expansion required more than just individual brilliance. In 2023, he conducted an in-depth analysis of market gaps and operational inefficiencies. The solution? Building a powerhouse team of industry veterans, each with 15+ years of specialized experience.
This strategic overhaul culminated in a bold rebranding in April 2024, positioning ONNEXT Interios as a pan-India luxury interior design brand. The revamped identity reflected Mudabbir’s vision—innovation, exclusivity, and unmatched craftsmanship.
