While the swing was selected with intricate brass carved chains, paying homage to our residents devotion towards the Indian craftsmanship , a contemporary color palette was carefully infused with the fabrics and wall panelling.
The focal point of the dining room is a massive window that stretches from floor to ceiling, allowing anabundance of natural light to flood the space and offering breath taking views of the outer landscape.
The window is adorned with beautiful drapes that gracefully cascade from top to bottom. In the centre of the dining room sits a magnificent stone dining table, where the dining chairs are upholstered in captivating color scheme of deep greens and blues, interspersed with hints of lilac.
