  • This Goa Home Has A Soft, Neutral Aesthetic | Studio Tilt

    The space in Goa has been designed as the first home for a young couple, Abhishek and Roselle, who spend their time between London and Goa. The home owners wanted a soft, neutral aesthetic, a little different from the usual heavier, colonial-style homes that dominate South Goa, yet retaining some of the traditional essence. Post initial discussions, we arrived at a contemporary design style with a warm color palette, blending minimalistic design and hints of an old-world charm with a touch of Japandi elegance. The home is more an extension of the clients personalities and preferences.

    Editor’s Note: Walk into an oasis of tranquility that is embodied with current style and old world appeal. Bathed in warm hues and natural light, this inviting space reflects the couple’s essence, creating an atmosphere of effortless elegance and warmth, perfect for savoring life’s moments. ~ Isha Bora
