Nilayam 403 by Pangram studio celebrates an outlook towards the future tied by a popular mid-century modern movement from the 20th century — a movement rooted in functionality, linearity & clean lines. The requirement for this home was straight and simple – the client wants a modest home for his family of three (himself an entrepreneur, and his parents). A house that can comfortably accommodate his family while also host small gatherings from time to time, this is an apartment immersed in pastel colors and is vastu compliant.
An Apartment Immersed In Pastel Colors And Is Vastu Compliant | Pangram Studio

Upon entering, one is immersed within the purity of the material palate, which is put to place in warm welcoming colours. With a marble-top teakwood dining table placed centrally, it holds the long perspective of the living space together, often blurring the lines between dining and entertainment.
An open-ended 3-bedroom floor layout, the small floor size compelled the individual occupants to become intra-interactive, converging into living area or the drawing & dining space.
The kitchen as element for family reunion has been designed on simple lines which together with the materials create a serene and elegant atmosphere.
All three bedrooms are positioned along either side of the living area along the external wall, allowing for ample light and cross ventilation. Each bedroom has a different atmosphere and they have been specially furnished to meet the taste and requirement of its occupants. The parent’s bedroom or the master bedroom had to be inter-changed with the kitchen to correct Vastu.
However, the space has been designed as an ode to the simpler times from yesteryear. The use of solid teakwood along with rattan is nostalgic but a touch of mint green in the arch bed brings you to the present. It is indeed a play of yesterday and today, looking forward to tomorrow.
The bedroom to be occupied by the client himself, is designed to create a serene and harmonious space that combines muted mid-century aesthetic to cater to the needs of our entrepreneurial client. By integrating soothing colours, sleek furniture, ample natural light and purposeful accents, we created a space that fosters relaxation, productivity and personal growth.
The space aims to provide its occupant with a peaceful sanctuary where one can find balance and serenity amidst their dynamic lifestyle.
A guest bedroom offers both functionality and charm, allowing the room to effortlessly transform from a cozy lounge area to a comfortable sleeping quarter, all while showcasing the hues of pastel tones in arches on the murphy bed.
The murphy bed also offers extra storage with hidden extendable side tables and closet space. The pastel hues add a touch of whimsy inviting atmosphere that exudes serenity and charm.
Through the integration of clean lines, organic shapes, warm & inviting hues, vibrant accent and detail-oriented accessories, the design captures the spirit of mid-century modern style. The result is a harmonious living space that blends classic design with contemporary sensibilities, offering a visually captivating and inviting environment for residents and guests alike.
