Editor’s Note: “Within this dwelling, aesthetic minimalism intertwines effortlessly with functional elegance, crafting an ambiance steeped in both comfort and luxury. Rich hues of honey and blaze, complemented by hints of olive, adorn the interiors with a refined palette, showcasing meticulous attention to detail. Departing from the rigidity of linear forms, furnishings, ceilings, and wall adornments coalesce in an uninterrupted flow, orchestrating a symphony of design that seamlessly harmonises aesthetics with utility.” ~Simran Khare
A 2900 Sq.ft House in Pune Completed Under A Span of 4 Months | About the Space
Upon entering, the space exudes refinement and sophistication. The essence of this home truly lies in having created a space with natural tones and yet blended it enough with metallic elements and leather detailing to give a plush look and feel.
Where less is more, the colour palette carefully chosen was warm tones of honey and hazel blended in with shades of olive. Imagining the home as a space where one’s creative self can be replenished, the architects brought in earthy materials and textures.
The heart of the home is definitely the cosy lounging area with swivel arm chairs. It is placed right next to the ombre finished coffee bar. The very first space as we enter the home becomes the best spot to entertain friends and family by brewing a fresh cup of coffee as they sit around the boucle sofa and chat.
The larger living area right across the lounge area is where the family can relax, watch television and enjoy the sunset right outside.
The flowing lines in the carpet, curves in the ceiling and the large round sofa. It all makes way for the beautiful art work by Hue Odyssey that takes centre stage here.
The tv unit comes together beautifully with a leather panel at the back, veneer detailing and metallic lacquer on drawer fronts. A circular planter box cuts through the rectangular mass.
The leather arched legs make way for the Amazonia marble top dining table right next to the fluted sideboard.
The master bedroom mixes the elegance of tan and beige with the playfulness of the curved cutouts on the wall and arch on the bed.
The minimal bedroom embodies the wholesome feel of simplicity, luxury, modernity, tranquility with contemporary vibes.
The daughter’s room plays around fresh whites and hues of purple where the bold use of lavender in the ceiling takes the limelight.
The guest bedroom is woven together by the bright striped wallpaper in shades of bright green and terra.
The house in Pune truly embodies a convergence of distinct yet complementing flair. The sanctuary transcends the boundaries of the everyday and goes beyond. About the Space has delivered a timeless masterpiece for their clients to bask in and cherish for years to come.
