Each zone was carefully curated to encapsulate its unique essence, whether it reflected traditional Indian living or paid homage to opulent Western sensibilities. The synthesis was achieved with a masterful touch that not only bridged cultures but celebrated their coexistence.

The spatial arrangements of the space divide all the public areas such as living, kitchen, dining and a bedroom on the ground floor, and private areas such as other bedrooms and the family area is planned on the upper floor.
As one enters the house, eyes are naturally drawn by the landscaping done. All the elements create a foyer and sets the stage for the entire house. This beautifully crafted space with a jhula leads one to the living area. Inside the living area, 3+2 sofa, statement chair, and antique fittings look reminiscent of nature.
