The most fascinating stage while designing the interiors was that a flooring company launched a collection of tiles in various vibrant colors, the theme of the house was influenced from the flooring selection and a variety of different color tiles throughout the house. For the ground floor, the designer of the project opted the two strong colors, melograno color flooring tiles in combination with black color.

There client needed an unique colour palette with a rustic theme, however bedrooms reflecting the individual family member personality, hence the selection of theme and flooring originated. 

The balance between these two colors was achieved beyond expectations, it worked in harmony throughout the entire floor, all the artifacts and furniture were selected to compliment the color palette. In a word this house can be described as a “mélange” which means a mixture of a variety of things yet in a symphony.

As one enters the house, every space on the ground floor has melograno tiles and marble finish on the wall and the furniture is in black. Living room has a plain white fabric couch looking elegant with a squarish coffer black false-ceiling which continues in dining room with long hanging lamps from it and the dining table in rich design. Kitchen is beautifully designed with a black countertop and cabinets with a fluted surface in black along with ceiling and less of melograno finish on walls. Puja and a single chair seating space is bifurcated with a wooden partition. 

Challenge was to balance the colour palette, the play of the vibrant colors along with other materials was an intriguing exercise to work upon. To maintain natural light balance within the darker colour scheme used in wall and ceiling.

The ground floor bedroom also follows the ground floor theme with a grandeur four-post bed with the relevant theme wallpaper expressing a royal outcome of the room.The black textured curtains compliment the ambience of the bedroom. 

There are 2 master bedrooms, one with argilla color flooring and marble finish on the walls and ceiling with green fluted wooden paneling on ceiling in the center and a feature wall, with all furniture in raw brown color with a classic bed giving a modern aristocratic vibe.

The other master bedroom feels heavenly with light argilla tint flooring and walls in synchronization with the rest of the house along with art works of blue color.

Children’s bedroom has menta color flooring along with the same color marble finish walls with white furniture, and a single bed providing a sense of calmness.
