Biography
Raised in Chennai, India, Reddy studied architecture in India at Anna University. She moved to the United States at age 18 and earned her Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Detroit Mercy. She has worked at Arquitectonica, Polshek Partnership, and Gabellini Sheppard.

Reddy founded her firm, Reddymade, in 2002 with a focus on architecture and neuroaesthetics. She has described her mantra as "form follows feeling," which focuses on how design can impact wellbeing.

Reddy teaches at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation. In 2019, she was appointed Plym Distinguished Visiting Professor at the architecture school of the University of Illinois School of Architecture.

Neuroaesthetics
Reddy's work is guided by the mantra "form follows feeling," which examines architecture's relationship with the body. She has written and lectured about architecture and neuroaesthetics. In 2019, she designed the installation, "A Space for Being," in collaboration with Google executive Ivy Ross, Muuto, and Susan Magsamen at the International Arts + Mind Lab at Johns Hopkins University for Salone del Mobile in Milan to explore physiological response to the stimuli of our designed environment.
