ART COMES HOME

A weekend home by Aamir and Hameeda Sharma is witness to a delightful love affair between art and spatiality in a quiet gated community of Hyderabad

- PRATISHTHA RANA

Framed by antique carved pillars that are sourced by the homeowners, the formal living area on the ground floor is a sight to behold. The Bungalow chairs are from Riva 1920 while the side table with a pop of red and turquoise seaters are crafted by Onedotó

Welcoming natural light, the weekend home embarks on a journey punctuated with art.

The walls treated with micro topping are decorated with artefacts sourced locally; Star attraction of the formal living area is the M.F. Husain painting alongside a custom blue sofa with cushions from Good Earth and a coffee table from SCASA, atop a Jaipur Rug carpet. On the left side of the blue sofa is a floor lamp from Thea Light Works and towards the right side are angel artefacts by a local artist and bench from Nakashima Woodworkers

Flamingo pendant lights from Vibia illuminate the bar in brass designed by Aamir Sharma and bar stools by Onedotó. It is set against the backdrop of a wall panelling by Nuance Studio. Behind the bar is a console made for the homeowner by SCASA that hosts locally sourced artworks, a Noctambule floor lamp by Flos available at Thea Light Works and a tap from Jaquar

Sofa and armchair by de Sede, centre tables, a blue television console and three wooden side tables from Onedotó, and a carpet from Jaipur Rugs offer a picturesque composition. The yellow bull sculpture by artist Shrikant Kadam rests on the black table from Onedotó

A Poltrona Frau sofa and table from Onedotó with an antique wooden frame from the homeowners' private collection add a striking demeanour to the master bedroom. The black custom made console hosts a red deer sculpture by Onedotó, alongside a wall artwork by Sachin Jaltare
