The Dining Space and the extended Kitchen space has a clean ivory theme with wooden false ceiling, and cabinet which adds warmth to it. The dining table with white Italian top and a central wooden support sits perfectly below the celestial light fixture, with a subtle floral backdrop.
The long and linear guest room is spatially segregated via levelled wooden false ceiling near dressing and a plain white ceiling near the bed. The wooden frieze with patterns adds a character to the Blue back drop of the backrest and the bed. The similar frieze as a motif travels vertically on the wardrobe and gradually transforms into a handle.
The Parent’s room, is given a mid-century feel with a detailed wooden panelling below the lintel level incorporating the TV unit within, and a light shade above making the space feel bigger. The grey bed with patterned velvet upholstery has a backdrop of a subtle terrazzo finish texture.

The Master bedroom has a plush tan upholstered bed with chesterfield pattern on the back rest, sits right in front of a teal backdrop giving a fresh perspective to the space. The wooden TV, and wardrobe console and free standing side tables adds richness and warmth to the neutral colour palette of the room. An extensive bar unit in wood and marble is designed right in transitionary space of the bedroom and the open terrace resembling an apothecary table, having dedicated spaces for all trinkets.
