We all love to work with clients who share their requirements, broad ideas and leave the rest to us with utmost trust. Such was this small family who approached us for their small 800 sq.ft carpet area 2BHK residential apartment located in a very good community housing society by Goyal and Co. named Orchid blues in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Thus, a conscious effort has been made for space planning each and every space of the house to make it look spacious with the use of natural materials coupled with earthy and minimal selections throughout the house. The interiors are on a take on modernism, minimalism with clean and crisp lines with a soothing colour palette and visioning the client’s needs and requirements. Orchid Greens, a minimal 2bhk residential apartment is designed by Ar. Vihangi Gandhi, the founder and Director of Studio 507.
