We visualised a modern classic interior design in this 650 sq.ft apartment in Mumbai, India. The brief was to renovate the apartment and give it a makeover that not only increased its functionality but also gave it a chic trendy look. It should be simple yet timeless.
A Modern Classic Interior Design In This 650 sq.ft Apartment in Mumbai | Studio KNest
As soon as you enter, arches grab your attention. We have paired sleek contemporary lines of the modern style with the curved geometry of arches.
One can see a few pops of coloured fabrics here and there, for example, the royal blue sofa.
We have used Abstract mirrors which make the living room look more spacious.
The textured fabrics of accent and dining chairs and rugs elevate the space.
For the Master bedroom we have tried to achieve a unique balance; the rustic style of design storied with new, modern and simple elements. Wooden flooring paired with a concrete wallpaper help us achieve the same.
Following the modern classic style, the toilet for the master bedroom is in a black and white colour palette.
A key factor while designing this room is the use of a smart storage solution -The murphy bed. For example the cabinet itself has an in-built bed which can be used when the guests come over. The murphy bed unit is styled in a green colour palette with brass gold handles.
The attached toilet for the guest room is made with the combination of Terrazzo tiles and matt green vitrified tiles to give it a modern classic look.
