Editor’s note : “Rising gracefully, the bungalow stands as a tribute to classical architecture, adorned with symmetrical columns and meticulously crafted embellishments. Its opulent interiors exude a luxurious aura while maintaining a serene ambience. The presence of patterned tiles and a coffered ceiling adds a dash of flair to the overall well-balanced design. As everything harmoniously comes together, the project prompts contemplation on the potential infusion of further Western influences into India’s rich and diverse architectural tapestry.” ~ Venessa Thomas (Co-Editor)
