A French spin-off to the royal Indian palaces with their ritualistic patterns, motifs and colours in this residence designed by AGNOM DESIGNS with a comprehensive approach of opulence and splendour with the nuances of Indianness. Immaculate geometric patterns, a sweeping gleam of metallic accents, audacious colour pops and encompassing chandeliers with ambient light summarise the story of this swanky apartment.
“The idea was to blend the signature markers of opulence Italian marble, gold accents, classic mouldings, reflective surfaces and lush fabrics. We took inspiration from the palaces across India to borrow colours, patterns and motifs that could be adapted to a contemporary milieu?’ says Leena Monga, Founder and Principal Designer of Agnom Designs.
With a sprawling expanse of 6,400 sq ft on the 18th floor of the lavish Camellias in Gurugram, this apartment is home to four extravagant bedrooms and even more posh bathrooms. While the homeowners gave Leena the complete freedom to realise the vision of their dream home into reality, there was a single stipulation, amalgamate Neoclassical aesthetics and conventional elements of Indian palaces in their new city home.
