Brimming with light and life, Sneha Singhi Upadhaya’s home in Kolkata is an extension of her family’s warm and affable personalities. The renowned chef reached out to Essajees Atelier to conceptualise the interiors of her new apartment, a 6200 sq ft home in the Ballygunge area of Kolkata. “We received a message on our Instagram account from someone in Kolkata to do the interiors for their new home. A few days later the client, Sneha, came to Bombay and we got along like a house on fire. She was getting married and was going to move into this apartment after their wedding. The brief was to introduce a lot of natural light as the original space was dark and dingy. The home was for her, the husband-to-be, and their two dogs. The only instruction was that it was time-sensitive and had to be completed within six months. Sneha and her husband are easy-going and love to host their friends and family, and the apartment had to reflect that,” says Sarah Sham who is the principal designer at Essajees Atelier.
