    Study – Vahaal

    Study of Vahaal - Indian home, Indian interiors, slatted wood wardrobes, window facing study table, open bookshelves, sofa cum bed, wood interiors

    Today, we’re looking at a room that does double duty, the Study of Vahaal. Most days, it’s a study, but when guests come over, it can turn into a bedroom too.

    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

    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.

    Guest Room – Daastan

    Guest room of Daastan - blue and beige walls, TV unit with backlit bookshelves and study table

    The guest room of Daastan is one of my favourite spaces in this gorgeous home. In a home that is bursting with colour, we did colour in this room in a completely different way. I would say this room is saturated

    Master Bedroom – Daastan

    Master bedroom of Daastan - blue bedroom, twin headboard, study table near bed, blue and white inlay side table

    From the bright and bold foyer and living room, it’s time to move into the quieter and more private areas of this home, the bedrooms. Though these spaces are also full of life and colour, the impact if gentler and

    Master Bedroom – Falak Azura

    Master Bedroom of Falaz Azura

    The master bedroom of Falak Azura is one of the most tenderly beautiful spaces of this home. It reflects the ‘azure’ in the project name perfectly and the clients’ love of blue comes across as clear as a cloudless blue

    🏆 Best of Houzz 2018 - 2022: Design & Service

    Kitchen lighting gets treated like a practical aft Kitchen lighting gets treated like a practical afterthought far too often.

We don’t do that. ✨

Because the right lighting can take a kitchen from nice to quite the looker.

Here, we layered the lighting rather than relying on one ceiling light:

• Under-cabinet lighting — because chopping onions deserves good lighting too.
• Plinth lighting — a soft glow that makes the cabinetry feel lighter and adds a little drama after dark.
• Ceiling lights — for the overall illumination when you actually need to see what you’re doing.

The result?
A kitchen that works hard by day and knows how to dress up by night.

    One room, two jobs, and a pretty lovely view! 🤎 T One room, two jobs, and a pretty lovely view! 🤎

This little study at Vahaal doubles up as a guest room when needed. We have warm wood, louvred shutters, a cosy sofa-cum-bed and plenty of storage. And a view of Mumbai’s skyline that isn’t a bad backdrop for a day’s work!

We’ve shared the full story of this room on the blog, from the layout to the little details that make it work.

They fill empty corners, draw the eye upwards and bring a little bit of the outdoors in — with plenty of personality.

    A little kitchen secret hiding behind the wall! 😉 A little kitchen secret hiding behind the wall! 😉 

This kitchen was too small to fit a dishwasher, so we got creative. The drawers to the left of the counter extend right through into the adjoining bathroom, making use of space we couldn’t spare in the kitchen.

They also hide plumbing and electrical points for a future dishwasher. When our client is ready for one, out come the drawers and in goes the dishwasher.

We always think two steps ahead!

    Next up on our Vahaal tour... the kitchen! 🍃 It’s Next up on our Vahaal tour... the kitchen! 🍃

It’s a small one, so we had to get a little clever with the planning. Plenty of storage, good counter space, and even a provision for a dishwasher, despite the space crunch!

And then there’s the look. Warm walnut, soft beige, olive green tiles and brass handles, all coming together to make this little kitchen feel right at home with the rest of Vahaal.

Small kitchen, big personality. 😉

The wall opposite the bed in Vahaal’s master bedroom had one job to do: fit in a TV without making the room feel like it revolved around one.

So we paired a sleek, wall-mounted TV with a warm walnut chest of drawers that doubles up as storage. No bulky entertainment unit, just a good-looking piece of furniture that earns its place.

And that lovely window seat beside it? That’s a story for another post! 🌿

From raw concrete shell to a bathroom with serious character.

• Warm, textured walls to soften the hard surfaces
• A patterned tile feature wall to bring in rhythm and visual interest
• A large round mirror to break up all the straight lines
• A chunky black counter and basin for contrast
• Brass lighting to add a warm glow against the darker finishes

Small footprint, big personality.
