WHILE THE SUN SHINES

Bathed in natural light, this bright and airy penthouse that happens to be actor Sushmita Sen's family home in Mumbai is a perfect example of spring-summer decor

The family needed a second home in Mumbai to unwind and relax together. When Shubhra Sen, an acclaimed Dubai-based jewellery designer and mother of actor Sushmita Sen approached us to create a home that is a testament to the artful integration of luxury tailored to the family’s dynamic lifestyle, we immediately took on the challenge. The penthouse highlights a contemporary aesthetic, set against a neutral palette with generous infusions of metallic accents for a touch of glamour, given her professional affiliation with all things aureate.

Understanding the Layout

Perched on the 44th and 45th floors, overlooking the bustling Mumbai cityscape, this penthouse spans 7,500 sq ft and has four bedrooms and five bathrooms. The social spaces, such as the living and dining areas, have been envisaged with an open-plan layout to host family and friends for a sense of richly layered, neutral ambience doused with luxurious warmth that extends a gracious invitation.
