The sculpturus dining table extends from the flooring inlay with a clear glass table top to exhibit the structural craftsmanship. The gold accents in light fixtures and decor are nothing short of curated art.
The grand kitchen is a spacious void with serene colored surfaces which ensures smooth and uncluttered functioning for its users.

The popping accents of blue and red are balanced out with subdued whites and simplistic geometry of furniture pieces.

Adding to its richness is an exquisite Kesariyaji Green cladded bed back, with elegant brass inlay. The room is inspired by authentic Indian characteristics infused and materialized with modern influences.
Master toilet, a continuation of the bedroom with a walk-in closet, is an artistic expression of veneer, white marble and brass. Under a pitched veneer ceiling, the grand washroom is set-up with an appropriate amount of illumination and the louvered wooden blinds let-in just the right amount of daylight, creating a sublime experience.
The semi-open Verandah follows the ideology of a ‘chowk’ in traditional Gujarati households. A welcoming entrance to the residence with printed tile flooring and a patterned ceiling is a captivating sight to behold. A custom swing floats against yet another art-piece.
