The mirror panel is designed primarily to reflect the opposite wall where the client would arrange “Golu” during the Navaratri festival. Meanwhile, mirror panels also provide an illusion of larger space and reflect light. Furthermore, the chest of drawers in veneer finish is primarily for storage and to display artifacts.
The red brick wall adds texture, warmth, and a rustic touch to the space. Moreover, the TV unit panel designed in veneer finish and tall storage on side in profile glass shutter.
Sofa back walls are designed in concrete texture walls, which blend with the interior.
The client wanted a timeless design for her kitchen. Hence she opted for wooden finishes rather than any trending acrylic shades in the market.
Wooden shutters contrasting with dark gray laminates bring charm and character to this beautiful kitchen. The breakfast counter doubles as a study space for her kids when she is cooking.
The bedroom features a wooden headboard and contrast black fluted panels. Overall, cane wardrobe with layered glass gives an earthy vintage charm.
Warm wooden flooring along with wooden and black laminate-finished study creates a visually appealing contrast to plain walls. Overall, the room is designed in simple, clean lines to create a place to relax and unwind.
The kids room accommodates all the functional needs of siblings, a boy and a girl, as well as create a space where imagination takes flight.
The highlight feature of the room is the black and white customized wallpaper. Moreover, clients wanted inspiring sayings in their own mother tongue to be part of the wallpaper theme.
Henceforth, we curated quotes, comics, and alphabets to create a customized theme. The space is designed to create a positive mindset and uplifting effect on the moods of children.
The Guest bedroom designed in neutral tones. Stylish wall-hung suspended ledges hold large numbers of books and collectives. Wardrobe wooden handle uniquely designed to give a stylish look.
