In a standalone building, the home occupies the highest floor of the multi-story apartment. Photographed by Studio BluOra, this residence is designed for the two people in their golden age, living together after fulfilling the civic and parenting duties. The lady of the house owns a renowned restaurant in Jaipur whereas her counterpart is retired from the Army. The clients wanted an apartment in Jaipur with an interactive spatial layout having classic aesthetics that is far from mundane. They expected the space to reflect their unique story of calling it a home. Radhika, the principal designer, brought the elements of functionality and aesthetic together to design this haven. She ensured that the roots are reflected in the space by adding a touch of vibrant Indian culture.

The home’s design involved combining two separate flats, connected by a beautifully crafted lobby, each containing three bedrooms. The clients wished to have more space and less material possessions. They achieved this by refurbishing the existing furniture and organized with new ones aesthetically to direct the energy flow of the house. The lobby area opens to the expansive informal living area at one end and dinner area on the other, creating an open and inviting atmosphere.
In the formal living room the Indian theme is skillfully preserved by updating the upholstery of the vintage roll arm sofas. To add character and grandeur to the room, wainscoting is done on the light grey walls which exude minimal sophistication. During the day, light brightens the room reflecting the soft colour palette opted for the room. The designer has carefully chosen marble-patterned tiles with a graceful wrap design to complement the room’s aesthetic. To accentuate the area, diagonal placements of blue lamps in the corners add a touch of sophistication and character to the space.
