Our History
Archute was launched in 2014 by then architecture student and designer Ian Mutuli as an online broadcast of the best architecture around the world. Archute grew to become a top resource for architects, interior designers, and design enthusiasts from 2014-2020. In November 2020, Ian sold a majority stake to Indexsy Consulting Ltd, bringing in much-needed efforts from Jacky Chou, CEO at Indexsy and passionate interior design enthusiast, to grow Archute into an independent media company focused on: great residential and home architecture, interior design, décor and a resource-providing real-life solutions for people and their homes.
