The Brief of Project.
The project which I am sharing is 1200sq/ft 3 bhk apartment located in Bharuch, Gujarat. In this apartment we tried to create luxury with simplicity & also tried to maintain quality of class throughout the apartment. The Shah’s Apartment exhibits elegance, lavishness and modernist features of the design. This renovated adobe at the city of Bharuch is consciously curated with elegant choices of materials and subtle details. The client brief was straightforward and the requirement was to achieve a contemporary look while having an open and spacious layout. Prime material choices by the Designer were inclined towards rich and polished finishes such as Italian marble, Metal & a warm welcoming, light color palette. This family of five included one young boy who had their own taste preferences for their personal space, and expressing their personalities via design was one of the challenges that this project showcases. This home looks like a drop of sunshine wrapped in soothing Mint pastels. Belonging to Mr Ronak Shah and Mrs. Jinkal Shah, their brief was to make their home look simply, stylish and contemporary look with minimal wooden décor and lots of colours. A very conscious decision was taken on the material palette for the housekeeping a few elements constant to form a coherence experience of the house. Every person in the house was different and hence all spaces had to narrate different stories in the same coherent whole. The colours used in this home are predominantly clean with ample whites, mint, and accented by the limited doses of Grey wood and milder shades of Blue and peach.

One can also find a very interesting wall hanging of circles Painitng made from different materials, making it the most eye conic element in the room. The tabletops are even in Round shapes to following this approach. The superior white Flower on corner of Sofa unit offers an intensified and appealing base to the overall setup. The Living room opens into a balcony which is a source of natural sunlight during the day and source of soft breeze at night. Welcoming vestibule houses an earthy–gray veneer consol, a credenza, white false ceiling with diagonal details driving the eye to the opposite side of the space. The accent wall is treated with Dimond Designer glass paneling giving the space a grandeur and spacious look. The versatile Mint green wall with a cementundertone, the classic style beading, and the hangging light against the tanned comfy sofa defines the character and feel of this space. This feature wall is further enhanced by the corbelled white ceiling and statuario marble flooring to come together to exemplify the serenity here. All furnishings are designed to be off the ground for keeping the space maintenance-friendly and visually increasing the ground cover.
