Highlights
Although the overall design of the house is contemporary, the Materials used are extremely rich and timeless the center table has a selenite top that gives a sense of connectivity throughout the house. Also, we have used a limited number of materials in the entire house.
For ex:- Same veneer has been used in all the bedrooms and common areas. Same goes with Italian stone, some of the fabrics etc. We absolutely loved designing the entire house as open plan, ample space and good height.
The theme of the space
Theme of the space is understated luxury. We have incorporated a lot of detailing in each aspect of the house that gives a sense of luxury. We have stuck to the theme except for the kids room that is earthy in theme.
Entire backdrop of the house is neutral in color. Formal drawing room has tints and shades of beige. Have used raw silk wallpaper on the walls. For dining area, we have used two pastel color fabrics on the walls that gives the double height area a cozy look.
Statuario marble has been used on the double height TV unit that is strategically placed against the double height window and hides the curtain when not in use. Same marble clads the lift walls as well.
Design philosophy
We believe in designing spaces that are timeless and exudes luxury without going overboard with materials and patterns.
