    Design Details

    Upon entering, one is immediately drawn to the captivating fusion of tradition and contemporary flair that defines this architectural marvel. Exposed brickwork adorns both the walls and ceiling, a nod to the timeless charm of rustic aesthetics. Whereas, the centrepiece, an intricately designed wooden entrance door, commands attention with its minimalist geometric motif and long, gracefully crafted handle that seamlessly blends traditional elements with a touch of modern sophistication.

    The journey unfolds as fine wooden grains clad the entrance wall, serving as a canvas for striking contemporary art pieces with a rustic aesthetic that set the tone for the living room beyond.

    Interior Details

    Full-size windows offer panoramic views of the bustling street outside. Thus allowing natural light to flood the space and accentuate the warmth of the wooden accents that envelop the room. In the living area, an olive green couch takes centre stage, its plush comfort inviting relaxation and conversation.

    Wooden panels create a cozy enclave. Thus culminating in a captivating metal screen-adorned void that adds depth and visual interest to the space.

    Dining Area

    The seamless transition to the dining area, adorned with a meticulously crafted wooden and marble dining table, further enhances the sense of continuity and harmony in the design palette.

    Ascending the staircase, adorned with a contemporary light chandelier that adds a touch of grandeur, one is greeted by a temple space that seamlessly blends tradition and modernism. Sleek sliders with black frames provide glimpses of the sacred space within. The columns echo the design language of the entrance handle, culminating in a unique interpretation of the traditional “shikhara” motif. It is resplendent in golden polish, exuding a sense of reverence and positivity.

    Master Bedroom

    In the master bedroom, symmetry and geometric repetition reign supreme. There is also a bedside wall adorned with olive-coloured square grid panelling juxtaposed against shades of grey that flow seamlessly into the ceiling. Sleek black fixtures and monochrome abstract wall art add a touch of modern flair. Thus creating a space that is both contemporary and inviting.

    The bathroom, following the same olive green colour palette, exudes a sense of tranquilly and harmony, while the master bedroom on the first floor offers a warm and luxurious retreat. The unique marquetry of the wooden texture, combined with embossed thin wooden panelling, adds depth and dimension to the space. Whereas, the balcony provides an intimate connection to the outdoors. 

    Intricate Detailing

    The second master bedroom has a warm interior design with a prominent focus on wood elements. The feature wall behind the bed is a striking combination of vertical wood panelling and an intricate latticework design in the entrance. The use of rich, dark wood tones creates a sense of depth and sophistication. 

    The bed itself is a simple, modern design with a low platform frame and upholstered headboard. The two bedside tables and lamps complement the wood tones of the feature wall. Thus adding a touch of warmth and functionality to the space. The overall design strikes a balance between contemporary and rustic styles, creating a harmonious and relaxing ambiance.

    Externally, the house emerges as a striking brick block of a concrete mass, a testament to the meticulous attention to material play and execution that defines this architectural masterpiece. Where every detail tells a story of craftsmanship, innovation, and the enduring beauty of architectural design.
