A year back when I was in Goa for a holiday break, I got a call from our clients to design their home in Bangalore. They had a tight schedule and we were unable to take on new projects at the time…..so we signed off saying “lets hope we get to work together in future”! A few days later one of our new projects didn’t go forward as planned and I reached out back to them saying if you’re still keen we may be able to explore this :) A year later and what a crazy year it’s been, here...

I know we're late in sharing the story of the modern victorian from our desk....but its never too late to share something so good :) About a year ago a young lawyer couple approached us to remodel and design their newly purchased Bangalore home. Nestled in the heart of downtown Bangalore city, this 950 sqft 2-Bedroom apartment had a charm about itself. The home was on the first floor and all the rooms opened into views of beautiful greenery. Our clients are co-founders of an independent firm in the city and they envisioned having a classic Victorian-style townhome residence that... Read more

We hope you enjoyed first part of the modern plantation home reveal and we're bringing to you today the private bedroom spaces in the home. Before you walk you up the beautiful glass and wood stairway, lets look at the guest bedroom in the ground level. Guest Bedroom Located on the ground level of the home, this bedroom anchors a traditional yet contemporary look and feel. The hero of the space has got to be the wallpapered wall. The floral-motif wallpaper introduces tones of maroons, deep green and beige into the space and that was a jump-off point for the... Read more

It’s been a tad silent here but we’re back with a fresh and much anticipated project reveal! It was August - 2019 when our team first did a walkthrough of the bare shell G+1 villa in a quaint gated community. A young family that hailed from Kerala, our clients desired an abode which was strongly rooted in its identity but with a modern flair to it. 😉 Our combined inspiration came from the palatial, open floorplan tropical-modern homes that resonated with the quintessential Bawa aesthetic; the earthy goodness of God’s own country & all this wrapped in the bones of...

Leave it to us to debunk dated design myths! We’ve... Read more

It was July of 2019 and we’d met the homeowners of a space that was going to be one of the most fun projects that we’d design in that year! This apartment is home to a vivacious couple and their delightful young son. Bold rich color derived from jewel tones, metallic hints and a play of textures from various materials form the DNA of the home and are the design features that give the space its sense of identity. Throw into the mix a penchant for Bollywood and cinema that the couple share and oh it was a ball! 😊... Read more

Kitchen Aah I love this kitchen! When we first met, Kaustubha said her heart was set on a blue and white kitchen and this set the tone for the home. I remember walking through this home and standing at the entrance of the kitchen imagining the wall gone and a big picture window with a hanging pendant over it! When I stand now and look, to see that vision come to life is such an amazing feeling :) Structural changes We broke down the wall on the right and took the puja niche provided into the study to create wardrobes. That... Read more

Back in June of this year I met our clients for the first time in a blank apartment. It was spacious but had a large column in the middle of the house, a big kitchen space but hardly any light and a large area adjoining the kitchen with great natural light! And that was our starting point to the modern mediterranean home! Its layered, its beautiful and the perfect mix of the modern and the traditional! Our clients, a young couple had very different aesthetics.....she loved traditional curves, the warmth of wood that reminded her of her childhood home, deep... Read more
