The client’s vision was clear—to create a refined, luxurious residence with understated opulence. All this, while preserving a sense of warmth and serenity throughout. This design journey brought that vision to life. With meticulous attention to detail and a deep respect for natural light, materials, and spatial functionality.
The designers transformed the double-height drawing room by replacing a solid wall above the sliding glass doors with a large window.
This strategic intervention allows soft eastern light to pour in. It offers a stunning view of the greenery outside, blurring the boundaries between the interior and nature. Such enhancements throughout the home laid the foundation for a seamless spatial flow and elevated the sense of openness.
The entrance of this luxurious residence sets the tone with a warm PVC wooden ceiling and bold corten steel elements. This includes the main doors and nameplate, all tied together by a rich palette of MCM cladding, veneer, and fluted panels.
Inside, the double-height drawing room makes a grand impression with its teakwood veneer and textured backdrop, elegant Italian leather seating, and artful lighting.
The designer designed the kitchen and dining areas for both beauty and efficiency, featuring acro laminate cabinetry, Quartz countertops, and a sophisticated onyx marble dining table.
An olive green sofa adds vibrancy, while fluted glass doors provide privacy between the public and family zones. The puja room stands as a tranquil retreat with intricate CNC-cut detailing and spiritual elegance.
Each bedroom is uniquely designed to reflect the personality of its occupant while maintaining a cohesive language of materials and finishes. The designer tailored every space with purpose, from the serene, minimalist aesthetic of the parents’ bedroom to the vibrant and artistic design of the daughters’ rooms.
