    Study – Vrindavan

    Study of Vrindavan - emerald green wall, teak wood study table, library bookshelves, entertainment unit, vintage traditional study chair

    From bedrooms to books, from soft landings to sharp focus. Today we’ll walk through the study of Vrindavan. It is that in-between space where productivity meets personality. A room that quietly says “let’s get things done” but also whispers “stay

    Guest Room – Vrindavan

    Guest room of Vrindavan - green and pink bedroom, indian decor, indian home, wallpaper mural on wardrobe

    And just like that… we drift into the guest room of Vrindavan.  This is a space designed to feel instantly welcoming, gently layered, and quietly comforting. Think soft textures, warm wood, and a palette that whispers rather than shouts. A room

    Next, we move on to the master bedroom of Vrindavan. It unfolds as a calm retreat layered with handcrafted details, gentle blues, warm wood, and subtle Indian motifs. A space designed to slow you down, breathe a little deeper, and

    Bar and Balcony – Vrindavan

    Bar and Balcony of Vrindavan

    Two little corners, worlds apart in mood, yet bound by the same spirit of Vrindavan. One invites you to pour, mix and linger. The other asks you to pause, breathe and watch the city soften into green. Together, the bar

    Living and Dining – Vrindavan

    Living and dining room of Vrindavan

    Stepping beyond the foyer, the living and dining room of Vrindavan open up as a warm, layered space where everyday life and quiet moments comfortably coexist. Natural light filters in through soft curtains, washing over earthy tones, textured surfaces, and thoughtfully

    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.

    Boy’s Room – Phoenix

    Boy's Bedroom of Phoenix - white brick wall, modern vintage, contemporary, upholstered headboard on pegs, poster gallery wall, wooden wardrobes with black metal handles

    Just off the dining area, we have the boy’s room of Phoenix. It strikes a seamless balance between style and substance. There’s a deliberate calmness in the palette—earthy, muted, masculine—but the room still feels youthful and lived-in.

    Guest Room – Mio

    Guest Room of Mio - yellow and blush, study cum guest room, wicker shutters, round rug, round inlay coffee table, study table, wicker study chair, sectional sofa cum bed

    A guest room that moonlights as a study—because why should any space settle for just one role? The guest room of Mio is a bit of a multitasker—the overachiever, if you will.

    Living and Dining – Sukoon

    Living Room of Sukoon - contemporary design, mustard sofa, multicolour area rug, marble coffee table, brass end table, metal wall clock, wicker tv unit, window seat

    In the bustling heart of Mumbai, where space is precious and life rarely slows down, we created a home that does just that — slow things down. Sukoon, which means peace, is a compact 3BHK apartment designed for a family

    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

    Dining lights have a tough job. They need to make Dining lights have a tough job.

They need to make the food look good, the table feel inviting, and somehow avoid becoming the only thing anyone notices.

A few things we look for:

• The right scale for the table
• Light that feels warm, not interrogation-room bright
• A shape that adds personality without stealing the show
• Something worth looking at even when it’s switched off

These are our favourites. Which one is yours?

The biggest change here? We flipped the bed placement entirely.

Before:
• the bed blocked movement and made the room feel tighter
• bulky furniture + dark curtains made the space feel heavier than it was

After:
• the new bed position opened up the layout
• a full-height wardrobe streamlined the storage
• soft neutrals + layered textures made the room feel calmer and brighter
• wall lights freed up bedside space and added a boutique-hotel vibe

Sometimes the smartest design move isn’t adding more.
It’s simply rethinking the plan.

    A dressing corner designed for a teenager who want A dressing corner designed for a teenager who wanted her room to feel soft, calm, and just a little bit Pinterest-worthy 💗

This nook was designed to do a little bit of everything:
• dressing table + window seat
• soft curves to keep the space feeling playful
• an arched mirror to visually open up the corner
• warm lighting that feels dreamy at night
• and layered blush tones because apparently “just one pink” was not enough 😄

    Headboards are basically the eyebrows of a bedroom Headboards are basically the eyebrows of a bedroom. 

They do three main jobs:

• Stop pillows from escaping
• Give you something to lean on during late-night scrolling
• Make the bed look far more put together than it probably is

From upholstered panels to warm wood details and everything in between, headboards quietly set the tone for the entire room.

These are our favourites. Which one is yours?

    Soft neutrals, layered textures, and one chair tha Soft neutrals, layered textures, and one chair that quietly steals the spotlight 🤍

This living room was designed to feel calm without feeling flat:
• textural fabrics instead of loud contrasts
• curved seating to soften all the straight architectural lines
• sheer curtains that let the daylight do most of the work
• warm wood tones to balance the creamy palette
• and subtle patterns that reveal themselves slowly

From drying rack zone to “just five more minutes with my coffee” zone ☕🌿

This narrow balcony needed to work harder without feeling crowded.
So we kept the layout light and simple:

• a swing chair for lazy evenings and long phone calls
• compact side table for coffee/books/snacks/random life admin
• layered plants to soften all the concrete around

Coz we think even the skinniest balconies can become the favourite corner of the house.

    A study corner that doesn’t scream corporate cubic A study corner that doesn’t scream corporate cubicle energy 📚

We kept this setup simple, warm, and quietly functional:
• a compact solid wood desk with slim tapered legs
• an upholstered chair comfortable enough for long reading sessions
• open shelving for books, keepsakes, and the “I’ll read this next” pile
• soft natural light filtering through sheer curtains
• and just enough greenery to make deadlines feel slightly less dramatic

    This living-dining space was designed around one s This living-dining space was designed around one simple idea — calm, comfortable, and easy to live in.

A soft neutral palette, warm wood tones, layered textures, and lighting that keeps the mood relaxed from morning to late evening ✨

A few details we particularly love:
• the sculptural pendant lights anchoring the dining space
• grey marble flooring adding depth without overpowering the room
• curved dining chairs softening all the straight lines
• and the mix of wood, fabric, metal, and muted prints keeping the palette quiet but never flat
