Incorporating the travel souvenirs
The design approach for this apartment has been a tad bit different, reason being the client. A lot of focus was put on art and sculptures that Sanjyt has been collecting from his travels. The space planning was done in a way that the spaces are well connected yet don’t interfere with each other.
Incidental surprises
Keeping in mind, it being a residential space, the idea was to create edgy interior corners with interesting pieces of furniture, art and sculptures while everything else becomes incidental. There’s an element of surprise mostly in every line of sight.
Colour coordinated
Basis of the composition takes dark colour, which is rare in decoration of Indian spaces. The team has a special relationship with colour and it is very clearly expressed in the different spaces. There is a stream of consciousness in the colours used in the house, connecting one corner to another.
Curating an unconventional Indian home
This space breaks the norms of a conventional Indian residence, and in one simple word can be described as “curated”. The objective was to create something you can see in any part of the world. While the walls become the perfect backdrop for art, objects collected from all over the world, textiles, the essence of the space primarily comes from Art. Some of the art is quirky, some of it is rebellious, some of it is inspired from memories of childhood and some of it is based on what, we as a society, have become.
