Modern simplistic…….A few meetings with our clients early on, and it was clear that this was how we wanted to approach the design of this project. This 4 bedroom apartment was to be a first home for a young family, with a lifestyle that focuses more on wholesome life experiences rather than the current day ostentations.

Thus evolved a design, which was a conscious response to the owners’ personalities seamlessly integrated with our design sensibilities. We were successfully able to conjure up an eclectic blend of elements, mostly modern in their design forms but with materials that exude a sense of the traditional.

A palette of subtle greys and browns dominates the overall design scheme. Wood and wicker add warmth, while the accent walls add just the requisite dose of colour pops. While this scheme runs primarily through the home, mindfully orchestrated variations in the material combinations and proportions, lend a distinctive feel to each space. A sprinkling of quirky art pieces, mostly original and sourced from various local artists, accentuates the individualistic tone of this homely abode.

Entering into the home, one steps into a cozy entrance lobby, beyond which lies an expansive living space that welcomes you with its understated sophistication and warmth. The living room is flanked by a terrace along its longer side, with large glass sliding doors that flood this space with natural sunlight. The open Kitchen and Dining spaces adhere to a muted colour palette with subtle design details, like the inlay flooring below the dining table, all while ensuring that efficiency and functionality stay at the fore.

Moving on to the bedrooms, each one displays an ambience that is a slight departure from the central theme, in what is a natural response to the personality of its occupants. However, deviate though they might, they do so consciously, without disturbing the cohesive design language of the entire home.

In the Master bedroom, fluted, paneled walls in teal take centre stage, well offsetted by minimalistic furniture in white with light wood accents. Flooring in wooden planks adds a warm hue to this space. A snug armchair corner in the room is a perfect place to curl up with a book and a steaming cup of coffee!

The Kids’ room has a light and airy feel, interspersed with bursts of colour in the form of a blue study backdrop and some cool pieces of wall art.

A neutral colour palette reigns in the Father’s room, with dual toned wooden accents and wicker elements lending a sense of tranquility to the overall space.

The Guest room exudes a fresh, explorative vibe, where the bright blue wall paneling continues in colour and form on to the wardrobe as well, keeping the wooden tones in this room to a bare minimum.

The top terrace is the family’s favourite place to unwind, be it for a quick workout or to enjoy the rains from the sheltered comfort of the gazebo, or then to simply spend quality time with each other after a long day’s work…..all while watching the sun set over the horizon.
