This home emphasises flexibility and luxurious house design with subtle charm. When Mr. Patil approached us for designing their newly constructed G+2 bungalow, the site was at a bare slab stage with only the basic RCC framework in place. The site is located in the suburbs of New Mumbai, just across the large marshlands with a fantastic view of the Vashi Creek, and hence we named the project “The Horizon Home “Their brief emphasised flexibility in the structure, particularly for the staircase design, window openings, and spatial planning. For us, it was a completely blank canvas, which made the process both exciting and creatively engaging. The project took approximately 7–8 months to complete. The family comprises a couple in their 50s and two children in their early 20s.

The ground level houses parking, with the main home beginning on the first floor, accommodating the living room, kitchen, and master bedroom. The second floor features the elder son’s bedroom, a guest room, and a family space at the first landing of a grand staircase.

Design Concept

The client desired a space that would make a statement while being luxurious, comfortable, and serene. Given the vast proportions of the room, we used the ceiling design to visually bind the space, extending elements from the ceiling down the walls for a striking first impression.

Staircase Design

Carefully placed veneer panels brought in just the right warmth. The grand staircase, with real wood treads and a cascading chandelier in the stairwell, adds drama to the entry.

Living Area

The Mandir room is neatly tucked into one corner of the living room, enclosed with semi open veneer finished doors. The mandir features carved solid-surface detailing and a wallpaper backdrop of Radha Krishna, creating a spiritual focal point.

The Kitchen

The kitchen is generously sized and planned in a C-shaped counter layout. The dining area sits at the transition between the living room and kitchen, defined by a planter box that forms the backrest of the seating. This placement not only connects the spaces but also adds greenery to the heart of the home.

The Master Bedroom

For the couple’s bedroom, the priority was a light, airy, and spacious feel. We achieved this with a soft color palette, fluted wall panelling for texture, and a statement headboard against a tasteful wallpaper.

The layout includes a separate wardrobe and dressing zone, partitioned by a TV wall to offer privacy from the bed area.

Elder Son’s Bedroom

The elder son had a very clear vision, black aesthetics with a floating bed, black flooring, and glass shutters.

We complemented the monochrome base with a tan leather headboard to add contrast and warmth, turning it into the statement feature of the room.

Younger Son’s Bedroom

The younger son’s brief was unconventional, pushing us beyond our usual design language. After multiple brainstorming sessions, we created a unique space defined by wacky PU painted panels with backlighting, forming a dynamic and visually engaging headboard wall. This room became the most distinctive in the entire house.

Other Space

Designing and executing this home was a deeply rewarding experience. Each family member brought a strong and unique design preference, and weaving these together into a cohesive yet personalized home was both a challenge and a joy. We are proud to say that the final outcome not only met but exceeded the client’s expectations.
