Emanated and inspired by the French countryside with a focus on biophilic elements, Leena Monga, Founder of Agnom Designs’ latest project in Vasant Kunj provides a peaceful, tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Stimulated by the concept of biophilia, which refers to the innate human desire to connect with nature, the Biophilic French design of this home is characterised by a thoughtful combination of natural elements, such as greenery and wood, sewn together with French architectural styles known for their elegance and sophistication.

Spanned across 11,000 sq ft in Vasant Kunj, Villa Verdure encompasses four extravagant bedrooms and palatial lounge areas. Encased in an elegant atmosphere that is both calming and comfortable, the use of natural materials becomes the highlight of the design.

From the moment you walk in, the expression of magnificence and grandiosity overtake your senses. An 8 ft diameter custom made chandelier and an inspired chess piece console made out of marble blocks of travertine and black Marquina, creates a sense of luxury upon arrival in the foyer.

Though natural materials like stone, wood, and textiles impart warmth and create an inviting space to relax and unwind. The strategic placement of windows brings in natural light and fresh air, while lush plants and foliage give a feeling of connection with nature. The ample onset of natural light speaks to the seamless integration of the indoors with the outdoors. Earthy hues such as green and brown are used frequently to mimic the colours of nature.

Chequered flooring, marble table and console, swanky chandeliers along with black and gold staircase railing detail sets off the tone for biophilic French design. With gold wall trims, the living room is nothing less than sumptuous. Divided into three distinct seatings, each element is accentuated with rich upholstery and metallic tones, illuminated by chandeliers and wall sconces. Indoor plants are used to bring a touch of nature indoors, create a calming atmosphere and add a natural texture to the room. The informal lounge on the above floor is designed with an air of mystery in darker tones.


The soft curves, ornate details, and intricate mouldings of French design are used to create the master bedroom design. A harmonious blend of natural and organic styles with refined elegance, it is a canvas of grey with tints of silver marshalled in a classy minimal setup.

With splashes of blue and yellow on a grey backdrop, the son’s bedroom is elevated with a quirky personalised carpet, cushions and charming decor pieces. Pervaded with colours yet preserving the delicacy, is the daughter’s room. With a four poster bed, a corner play area and soft furniture pieces, the room is swathed with natural light.

The guest room is crafted in beige and taupe hues. A rusty pop of colour furnished by lounge chairs creates a sense of balance and harmony. Wall mouldings realised across the house continue their trail in this room as well.

“Overall, biophilic French design creates a comfortable, organic aesthetic that enhances the beauty of the natural world and brings joy to the living spaces. This interior design merges grandeur with the elegance of French design and the calming embrace of nature, resulting in an environment that is both beautiful and serene,” concludes Leena Monga, Founder & Principal Designer at Agnom Designs.
