AD : Tell us something about this residence ? What was the concept behind its design inception ?
SHIVANI & AYUSH : This 4500 square feet apartment at DLF Magnolias has been the closest project to our heart .
The clients brief was very straight forward “ give us the dream house we have worked hard for all these years . Simple huh ? The couple had given us the freedom to creativity to design something very much like their personalities ; honest , homely and luxurious ; simply our inspiration for this house was the couple itself .
This 4-BHK apartment now converted to a 3 BHK was ripped apart completely and a whole new layout was interested as the most important requirement of the client was to have bigger private spaces , grand lobby area and a social area where they could easily host their family and friends . Contradicting to their personalities we designed the house from a very monochromatic theme so that we can use amazing paintings as our color palettes on plain walls . The use of Italian Statuario flooring all over the house and straight lines- minimal false ceiling helped us giving that exact monochromatic balance needed in the house .
