    Entrance and Mandir – Vrindavan

    Entrance and Mandir of Vrindavan

    Some homes are designed around a palette. Some around a style. Vrindavan was designed around a feeling. We’ll begin the tour of this beautiful home with the Entrance and Mandir of Vrindavan.

    Living and Dining – Phoenix

    Living room of Phoenix - wood TV unit, wooden trunk coffee table, red brick balcony wall, wicker accent chair, grey upholstered sofa, circular art gallery wall,

    They say a phoenix must burn to emerge, and this home is the truest embodiment of that mythic rise. This project was named by the client. Before I start sharing the living and dining of Phoenix with you, let me

    Living and Dining – Mio

    Living and Dining of Mio - round dining table, dining banquette, large glass dining pendant, blush and white, blush rose wall, brass birds, brass mirror frame, shoe unit, white and wood crockery unit

    There’s something magical about naming a home. It gives it character, a soul, a story of its own. This home, bathed in delicate shades of blush and warmth, is called Mio—inspired by the Japanese word for cherry blossom. Much like

    Entrance and Foyer – Kai

    Entrance and Foyer – Kai

    ‘Kai’ means the sea. And like the ocean, this home unfolds with gentle waves of blue, soft neutrals, and reflections that carry light and calm throughout its rooms. I’m really excited about walking you through our latest project, beginning at

    Living and Dining – Shway

    living room, shway, white, mid century modern, rocking chair

    Welcome to the living and dining of ‘Shway’. Shway is an elegant home with an understated luxurious vibe, done almost entirely in white and gold… and I can’t wait to show you around! Usually, when we’re discussing designs with four

    Entrance and Foyer – Daastan

    Entrance and Foyer - Daastan

    ‘Daastan’ means a story or a tale. Why we’re calling this home a story is a story in itself.. which we’ll come to later on. But since we’re comparing homes to stories, if ‘Taru‘ was a tender romance, you could

    Living and Dining – Bhargavi

    Living and Dining – Bhargavi

    Bhargavi is a name for Goddess Durga or Laxmi. I can’t think of a more auspicious beginning to sharing a project, than giving it a name inspired by a Goddess. Now that wasn’t entirely my doing… but we’ll get to

    Entrance and Bar – Falak Azura

    Entrance and Bar of Falak Azura

    ‘Falak Azura’ quite literally means a blue sky. Considering we barely get to see any sky in Mumbai, you have to be wondering what inspired this name. So before I walk you through the entrance and bar of Falak Azura,

From laundry-day chaos to a room that feels like it belongs to a girl. 💕

* The wardrobe gets a complete rethink, with a mix of crisp white shutters and warm wood drawers
* Plenty of drawer storage keeps the everyday clutter out of sight
* Soft pink and cream replace the heavy blue wall with a much lighter mood
* A scalloped border adds a playful little detail
* And the whole room feels brighter, softer and much more her

One room, two jobs — and now it actually looks the part.

* The wardrobe becomes a more considered piece, with a warm wood finish and wicker shutters
* A proper work zone fits neatly into the layout
* The sofa-cum-bed turns the room into a comfortable guest space when needed
* And the gallery wall adds a bit of personality — because a study doesn’t have to look like an office

Study by day. Guest room when required. Much more fun all round.

From “just a bedroom” to a room with a point of view.

* A botanical wallpaper brings the whole wall to life
* A soft, upholstered bed adds a calmer layer
* Rattan bedside tables bring in warmth and texture
* Terracotta and sage accents pick up colours from the wallpaper

And suddenly, the room feels much more considered — without feeling overdone
Same room. Very different mood.

    Wardrobes have commitment issues. 😄 Paint, veneer Wardrobes have commitment issues. 😄

Paint, veneer, glass, cane, fluted finishes, fabric-look shutters… there are quite a few ways to dress up a wardrobe.

We’ve rounded up some of our favourites — because sometimes the wardrobe deserves a little more than “make it white.”

These are our favourites. Which one is yours?

• Floor-to-ceiling wardrobes made every inch work harder.
• Soft sage, blush and ivory replaced the visual noise of mismatched pieces.
• Layered textiles and gentle patterns added warmth without overwhelming the room.
• A cosy reading chair turned an unused corner into the perfect spot to unwind.

All we did was give this room a little more purpose—and a lot more personality!

Some living rooms are designed for entertaining.

This one is designed for lingering.

• A warm, earthy palette that feels cosy without becoming dark.
• The window seat naturally draws your eye outdoors—and doubles up as the favourite spot in the house.
• Plants soften every corner and bring a little life indoors.
• Pattern is used in small doses, letting the rug quietly become the room’s focal point.

Nothing shouts for attention, yet everything works together to create a space that’s easy to come home to.

The biggest change wasn’t adding more.
It was choosing pieces that worked together.

• A bespoke TV unit brought in storage and warmth.
• Soft blush tones balanced the rich walnut finishes.
• Plants, textiles and layered textures made the room feel welcoming.
• Every piece now has a purpose—and the clutter finally has a home.

Sometimes all a room needs isn’t more square footage... just a better plan.
