In the heart of a 30' x 90' plot, a unique bungalow stands not just as a residence but as a living canvas, beautifully curated for a doctor couple. What sets this home apart is not just its precision but the infusion of vibrant creativity, as the wife's passion for painting intertwines with their shared vision for a harmonious living space.

The ground floor unfolds as a journey through elegance and functionality. The living area, with its extended portion boasting double-height ceiling, serves as the heart of the home. A seamless flow leads to the dining space and a well-equipped kitchen, creating a space that is both inviting and practical. The inclusion of a lift ensures easy access to every corner of this thoughtfully designed abode. The ground floor also hosts a guest bedroom 
and a master bedroom, providing a perfect blend of comfort and style.

Ascending to the first floor, a family room awaits, offering a bird's-eye view of the living room below. This vantage point creates a dynamic connection between the various living spaces, fostering a sense of unity and openness. The first floor also houses another master bedroom and a guest bedroom, providing private sanctuaries for the inhabitants. A charming terrace beckons beyond, promising moments of tranquility and breathtaking views.

The terrace is a haven of relaxation, featuring a carefully crafted sitting area adorned with a pergola of terracotta tiles. The interplay of shadows on the terrace, changing with the cadence of the day, creates a mesmerizing dance of light and dark. A circular cutout on the terrace above it unveils a beautiful courtyard, complete with a majestic “Parijat” [Nyctanthes arbor tristis] and pebble accents—a delightful connection to nature.

The exterior of the house is painted in a warm "kaav" color, setting the tone for a welcoming atmosphere. However, the most striking contrast can be found in the staircase area. The staircase railing is painted in a vibrant red hue, which beautifully complements the royal blue shade adorning the wall behind it. This bold choice of colors adds a dash of creativity and personality to the home's interior. Small punctures in the staircase wall, sealed with terracotta tiles, add a touch of intricate detailing, enhancing the artistic character of the home.

The choice of kota stone for flooring imbues the house with an earthy feel, grounding the space in natural warmth. The tactile and visually appealing qualities of kota stone contribute to the overall aesthetic, creating an inviting atmosphere.

Adding a touch of nostalgia, all the furniture in the house is almost 80 years old. Rather than replacing it, the couple opted to lovingly refurbish pieces wherever necessary, preserving the history and charm of each item.

In conclusion, this bungalow is a living testament to the harmonious convergence of science, art, and history. The doctor couple's residence is not just a home; it's a symphony of colors, textures, and memories that unfolds with every step. From the vibrant strokes of the wife's paintbrush to the timeless elegance of the 80-year-old furniture, this bungalow tells a story—one of healing, creativity, and the enduring beauty of the past.
