Striking terrazzo floors and exposed brick walls unify the vibrant interiors of this Vadodara penthouse.

Studio Vistara
An Encompassing Environment

An empty shell is a tantalising prospect for any interior designer. So when Studio Vistara received an open-ended brief to design an apartment for a young couple in Vadodara, the firm grabbed the opportunity to create a vibrant and eclectic space for its clients to call home.

Tejas Patel, principal architect at Studio Vistara, says, “The clients wished to have a youthful home, which would provide an ideal ambience for their active social life.” The firm took this as encouragement to create 4,500 sqft of seamless spaces complemented by 700 sqft of open terraces, which became a canvas for a multi-layered, visually captivating aesthetic.

Elaborating on the design vocabulary that the studio adopted for the apartment, Tejas says, “Continuous peripheral exposed brick walls, openings and patterned terrazzo flooring along with structural grid ceilings create a background for virtually any kind of style fit. Eclectic is the right word here.”
