This Home Blends Elegance With Modern Indian Interior Design | Hoot At Sight
We believe that, “Every space has a story to tell, and our job is to translate that narrative into a tangible, immersive experience,”. From minimalist urban apartments our designs are embracing a fusion of the old and the new.
The modern Indian interiors for this residence at KALPATARU JADE, Baner showcases a harmonious blend of modern elegance and functional living.
The design was carefully crafted to meet the specific needs of the homeowners, creating spaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional.
The project involved a meticulous selection of materials, furniture, and finishes, ensuring that each space resonates with modern style while also offering comfort and practicality.
The living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly into one another, creating a unified space ideal for both relaxation and socializing.
Spacious living area with a minimalist approach, featuring a sleek sectional sofa, contemporary art pieces, and an integrated TV wall. Modern steel, glass partitions, or brass hardware offer a sleek look while maintaining Indian warmth.
Soft pink cabinetry with soft-close drawers, pull-out storage, and hidden organizers makes the kitchen space efficient and elegant.
For the countertop, we have used 19mm tile that is free of joints. Additionally, we have added a drain outlet near the hob to wipe off excess water.
We have incorporated paisleys, mandalas, on the TV unit wall and jaali patterns in a sleek and modern way.
A serene retreat featuring soft lighting, custom furnishings, and a carefully curated selection of fabrics to create a restful environment.
Rich veneer furniture adds warmth and a natural touch. We chose Walnut shade veneer for its timeless beauty and ability to contrast with the modern finishes.
Keeping furniture simple and functional but adding handcrafted Indian decor like brass lamps, wooden carvings, or woven rugs.
Lighting is a key element in bringing the interior spaces to life. A layered lighting approach is adopted to cater to different moods and functions. Recessed lighting is used for general illumination, while accent lighting highlighted specific design features, such as artwork and architectural elements.
This recently executed project stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful design. Furthermore, every decision—from layout to lighting—serves to create a space that is not only visually stunning but also perfectly attuned to the needs of its inhabitants.
As design continues to evolve, Hoot At Sight remains dedicated to pushing boundaries. Moreover, the studio focuses on reimagining spaces and creating timeless environments that inspire. With an ethos of artistry, functionality, and innovation, our studio is shaping the future of modern Indian interiors. Furthermore, we are doing so one space at a time.
