Bringing in Classical Elegance

Classical elegance is not really rooted in any specific era, genre or in any theme or fashion. The word classic means that it is essentially timeless. So, whether you have classical elegance in a modern or Victorian space, there is a sense of quiet in the design ethos. This residence is a case in point with a quiet sense of luxury, a focus on Indian heritage, and strong elements that stand out as classic.

1. Be Floored The floor inlay here has been inspired from the patterns that we see across India, especially Rajasthan; indie black and white patterns that can be seen across the home.

2. Innovative Feature Look for ways that makes the space your own, In this home the clients wanted an entertainment space, so we worked with the idea of a performance area and created a central waterbody with a platform set within. This element is almost like an installation and was inspired from the architectural spaces at Fatehpur Sikri and Red Fort for performing arts.
