The micro-condo project, nestled within the vibrant urban environment of Pune, presented a unique design challenge that required a thoughtful approach to space and aesthetics. Our task was to transform a 2BHK builder-finished apartment, which unfortunately felt devoid of warmth and personality, into a welcoming and inviting home for a young couple. The challenge for this 2 BHK flat design was to achieve this transformation without exceeding their budget, which required a careful selection of materials and design elements.
This 2 BHK Flat Design Revitalizes A Finished Apartment Into A Home | Space Goals Design Studio
One of our primary obstacles was seamlessly integrating the existing builder-grade flooring into a cohesive design scheme. While functional, this flooring lacked character and did not contribute to the overall ambience we aimed to create. To address this, we focused on enhancing the visual appeal of the space through strategic design choices.
We embraced the fluidity of curves in key elements such as the television unit and the open shelving, which helped to create a harmonious flow throughout the living area. These curved forms not only added a sense of softness to the design but also encouraged movement and interaction within the space.
To further unify the different areas of the apartment, we introduced a carefully crafted band with intricate patterns that connected the various spaces. This band served as a visual anchor, guiding the eye and creating a sense of continuity while maintaining a soft, muted base texture that allowed the other design elements to shine. Additionally, the choice of colors and materials was deliberate, aiming to evoke a sense of calm and comfort throughout the home.
In the bedrooms, we prioritized functionality and minimalism, ensuring that each space served its purpose without feeling cluttered. The guest room featured a unique hanging headboard that introduced depth and character. Furthermore, it maximizes the available wall space. This design choice added an element of interest while maintaining a clean and streamlined look.
In the master bedroom, we designed a cozy nook that made the most of the limited space available. This nook provided a perfect spot for relaxation, reading, or simply enjoying a moment of tranquility. To enhance the overall lightness and airiness of the interiors, both wardrobes were constructed from fluted glass. This choice not only reduced visual bulk but also allowed light to filter through. Thus, creating an open and airy feel that complemented the overall design ethos of the apartment.
Through careful planning and creative design solutions, we successfully transformed the micro-condo into a warm and inviting home. Moreover, it reflects the couple’s personality and lifestyle. The project stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful design in maximizing space and enhancing the quality of urban living.
