The client’s vision centered around creating a user-oriented yet lavish abode. This resulted in a neo-classical exterior bungalow adorned with intricate stone carvings and screens, enveloped by lush green landscapes. A grand driveway, flanked by exquisite landscaping and a tranquil waterbody, creates a Zen atmosphere leading to the main entrance. It sets the tone for the grandeur within.

Every aspect of the exterior design reflects meticulous attention to detail, with elaborate architectural features like columns, arches, and balconies exuding sophistication. The manicured lawns, vibrant flower beds, and strategically placed trees further elevate the mansion’s aesthetic appeal.

Upon entering, the foyer, with its vaulted ceiling and large mirror adorning the wall, creates a dramatic first impression. Further inviting guests into the luxurious haven beyond. The interiors greet residents with an abundance of natural light streaming through expansive windows, forging a seamless connection with the surrounding landscape as a result of it.

The design also seamlessly integrates mirrors, metal accents, stone patterns, and captivating artwork, enhancing the visual allure of each space.

Interior Details

The focal point of the residence is however, the intricate detail in the wood of the railing staircase, clad in stone with carved accents, seamlessly blending classical elegance with modern design elements.

The double-height living area is a masterpiece of design, boasting captivating floor patterns and blush opulence. Furthermore, the accent lighting bathes the space in a warm glow.

Bathrooms showcase personalized stonework, from intricate carvings to subtle inlays, enhancing luxury and mood while connecting to the surroundings, and enriching the overall design of the residence.

Colour Palette

In summary, moving through the residence reveals a harmonious colour palette of warm beige, and golden yellow, with hints of colour in specific areas, adding depth and character to each space. Further, throughout the mansion, every detail, from the intricate stone carvings to the transitional design elements, reflects the client’s commitment to creating a residence that seamlessly combines functionality with timeless elegance. Therefore, offering a sanctuary of luxury in the heart of Rajasthan’s enchanting landscape.

One difficulty encountered during the construction was that the house was built using cement blocks instead of bricks. However, as this was a newer technology for rural construction, the local masons had to be taught and trained to work with this material.
