VILLA OF WONDER

This home in Hyderabad shows how a simple design can lead to a layered complexity with interiors that are more than the sum of its parts
MITALI AHARAM
VILLA OF WONDER

Minimal yet warm and inviting, and infused with Indian aesthetics, the Fleur home is a 4,000 sq ft villa for a family of three, revamped entirely from its original bones. Located in a quiet gated community in Hyderabad, this corner home is nestled around greenery. The aim was to create an airy, serene and well-lit space with lush tropical landscaping peeking through the windows. In order to do this, we removed the original flooring and replaced it with white Indian marble that has hints of green; the walls were broken down and the window openings were made bigger to let the sunshine in.
