This home by Studio HC is deeply rooted in textures, materials and craftsmanship.

THE RUSTIC NOOK

Set in the heart of Bengaluru, this renovated apartment has been transformed into a tranquil retreat for a couple that visits for a few weeks each year. From the outset, the vision was to create a harmonious blend of rustic and industrial aesthetics, reflecting the client’s appreciation for raw textures and understated elegance. Thoughtful renovations have breathed new life into the home, balancing functionality with timeless style. This project is a testament to the couple’s vision of a unique, grounded space amidst the urban landscape.

CELEBRATING INDIA

The design narrative is deeply rooted in India’s textures, materials, and craftsmanship, making every element a story of heritage and artisanal finesse.

The entrance door with an industrial charm is crafted from a rustic black-textured metal sheet and exudes strength and character. The standout feature is its handle, ingeniously designed from a reinforcement rod wrapped in vibrant red leather, adding a striking pop of colour and tactility. Complementing the door is a sliced bark of wood placed as an accent piece, which infuses natural warmth, creating a perfect balance of ruggedness and sophistication.

imageThe foundation of the living room design lies in its flooring, evoking the tactile feel of walking on reclaimed timber floors. Meanwhile, the rich texture of the walls is finished in a harmonious mix of beige and charcoal lime plaster. This surface creates a neutral canvas, allowing other elements of the room to shine while maintaining a raw and understated elegance.

CEILING IT IN STYLE!
