Inspired by minimalist designed international homes, particularly Scandinavian homes, the Worli-based house was designed by Anjali Rawat Architects. The project is soothingly modern with a brush of Scandinavian vibes.

The house is designed keeping in mind the client’s personality and requirements. Scandinavian furniture gave a perfect blend to the whole space keeping it subtle yet lavish. There were no budget constraints and the client wanted to move in quickly in a well-designed house, so Ikea became the main source of the décor furnishings. Given the lockdown constraints, the IKEA palette made execution easier.

Each corner has been designed with precise detailing and aesthetically enhancing. The approach was to create a design that was timeless, functional and versatile with the use of monochromatic shades with subtle pastel colour pops that would give a warm look and feel to the home. It’s a minimalist yet perfectly designed house with no bling, yet enhanced by its elements and colours.
