A home is as much about hosting friends and relatives as it is about living with one’s family. For some, it is a celebratory spot of life with their loved ones. Law professionals Duiti and Ravi approached The Works Interior (TWI) with a simple brief– to reimagine their new home as a reflection of their personalities and lifestyle. They envisioned an abode that becomes a cozy nest after a long day at work, while serving as the perfect leisure space for hosting their guests.
With the brief in hand, TWI visualized the house, from large-scale planning to the smallest furniture piece that would redefine the spaces in a new light. As a result, the product of the brainstorming stands in the form of Rue 32– a 2250 sq. ft. apartment, located in South Delhi, that harmonizes aesthetics and functionality, creating a haven for the family to unwind and cherish moments with their kith and kin and friends.
The living area that envelopes the bar is rendered to complement its opulence. Being the introductory space to the residence, it is draped in inviting shades. The furniture in Rue-32 comprises bespoke pieces handcrafted in the designer’s workshop to suit the renovated apartment’s gaieties.
Likewise, the living room is a showcase of eclectic furniture with the likes of a grey three-seater sofa, a rose pink loveseat and a chequered lounger. All of these circle a nested table finished in marble laminate, giving a focal point to the room. Wrapping the living area in a comforting embrace is the wooden ceiling that adds a restful touch. Its natural wood grains create a contrasting dichotomy with the contemporary bar unit.
Seamlessly opposite is the dining space adorned with an interplay in wooden textures as exhibited through different furniture pieces. The dining table, the chairs, and the console table are crafted with an understated elegance that charges this gathering space with its olive green tint.
The spatial layout of the residence is such that the areas gather around a central circulation spine that facilitates easy navigation around the apartment. In addition to the cleverly executed modern interiors to help the guests with their movement. Besides the space locations, on evenings and holidays, the hallway turns into a playhouse for the kids. Serving a small family, the house has a living room, a bar, a dining area, a den-cum-closet, a lounge and three bedrooms in its functional program.
The bar area manifests itself as the heart of the home, defining its spirit. Upon arrival to the apartment, the living room greets the visitor on the right, at one corner of which sits the sheen-bathed bar. Envisioned as the hub of all activity, the exquisite bar unit is crafted to take center stage in the space.
The couple’s hosting habits see the light of the day in this piece that flaunts a deep-hued granite top. Befitting to exchange light-hearted notes with family and friends over cocktails and beverages. Its vertical sides are in an animate look with the glass panels that emanate an onyx-life effect with the artistic play of colors and patterns contained within. A diffused light radiating from the panels casts a gentle glow, making the unit shine like a pearl in the ocean with wall-encased cabinet in the backdrop. Also, brass accents running along the edges encase the table. While lending balance and a touch of elegance to the entire bar area.
With the flexibility in work location popularized by the pandemic, Duiti and Ravi also wished for a home office. Hence, the designers introduced a private corner for reading or leisure. To make way for these spaces, the designers transformed a walk-in closet into a multi-purpose den. Not only consisting of a home office but also a storage space and a reading nook. In addition, a space-saving wall-mounted workstation takes position opposite a multifunctional closet to enable efficient space making.
Shutters of the closet are mirrors, giving the room a sense of enlargement and depth. While the walls are treated with exposed bricks and wallpapers to make for the added richness. When Ravi wants to work within the restful confines of his home, or Duiti wishes to nestle in one corner with her favorite book, this space opens up as the perfect cozy corner to jump dimensions.
In contrast to the maximalist living area, the master bedroom is instilled with minimalist tones and textures that exude tranquility. Similarly, the room on the end uses creamy whites, warm beiges and serene greys as an oasis of calmness. In which wood continues here to add character through a herringbone pattern on the ceiling above the bed.
