When working on interiors, it's rare to find spacious and free-flowing communal areas that seamlessly bind the home together. However, we were thrilled to discover that the layout of the Mavdikar House already included an enormous living area with smooth connectivity to the kitchen and dining. We decided to further enhance this living room, transforming it into a space perfect for both large gatherings and intimate conversations, with additional corners carved out for relaxation and unwinding. Moreover, the room enjoys a phenomenal view, so we oriented the furniture to face it, making it the focal point of the space.

The overarching theme of the home revolves around simple detailing devoid of decoration, strategic use of materials for visual interest, texture, and personality, featuring uncomplicated claddings and wall finishes, and clean, open spaces flooded with ambient light.

Adjacent to the living room is the dining area, adorned with custom-made furniture and curated antique pieces for a traditional touch. Between the dining area and the reading corner, a tailored bookshelf-cum-partition unit offers privacy while maintaining visual connectivity.

While the communal area boasts traditional furniture accents, the bedrooms draw inspiration from a European aesthetic, featuring painted accent walls and soft, neutral furnishings. The main bedroom adopts a turquoise blue and white colour scheme with ample greenery adding a refreshing hue to the design. To fully appreciate the view and natural light, the bedrooms purposefully avoid partitions, employing halftone, neutral colour schemes and minimalistic furniture to create a spacious layout conducive to relaxation.
