About Serenity I appreciate your request, but I must be transparent about a significant limitation: I do not have sufficient expertise in Santali language to provide an accurate, natural, and technically sound translation of this specialized interior design content.
Santali is a less commonly digitized language, and translating technical design terminology requires deep linguistic knowledge and understanding of how modern design concepts are expressed in Santali. Providing an inaccurate translation could misrepresent the award-winning design work and fail to meet the professional standards required for the A' Design Award & Competition platform.
