Harmonious Abode A Minimalistic Interior Transformation

Step inside this timeless and utility-oriented home with a minimalistic approach
Optimum use of space, homely vibes and clean cuts shall beckon you upon entering this minimalistic and earthy 2-bedroom hall kitchen renovated flat with an area of 815 square feet. This carefully structured space’s unique selling point is its decluttered look achieved with prudent use of accents and textures to set a cosy mood while providing adequate and substantial storage space for the homeowners: A family of three. The total budget cost for this project was INR 18 lakh approximately.
Classically simplistic living and dining area…
An expansive living room complete with veneer laminate wall moulding brackets used to accentuate the space greets you upon entering the home. A simple seven-seater sofa set with three table units is created for lounging and storing essentials. The design highpoint of this arrangement comes through with the wood finish cane work on the side panels of the sofa. The use of glass in a showcase, a vertical storage unit and a shoe rack created in a groove veneer pattern is a repeating accent that blends all the design elements in the house.

Classical wall moulding in muted tones sets a backdrop for the majestic real stone onyx countertop which serves as a dining table. The salient feature of this table surrounded by classical chairs is it stands on a single-leg support. A decorative lamp adds to the appeal of the dining area without making it overbearing.
Fully functional kitchen to meet your every cooking need
There are three basic elements of this kitchen which make it highly effective without looking cluttered. A C-shaped platform, the white storage top shelves to blend in with the ceiling and a muted champagne coloured storage unit below the platform is created to match with the rest of the interiors of the house.
Bedrooms that promise comfort and are high on utility
Coming to the first bedroom cum study room of the house, the requirement was to create a sanctuary for a working student which is not high on design but offers no-frills feasibility. A wardrobe with sliding doors built inside the wall is contrasted with a full-length mirror with a matching veneer pattern to create an illusion of space. The room has a bed with a single headboard and a side table. The corner below the AC pelmet is utilised for a study table. Hanging lamp and small memorabilia on a wooden rack above add a sense of individuality to the room while balancing the aspects of uniformity of all the design components.

The master bedroom is visualised in earthy tones with yellow tubes upholstered headboard cleverly hiding a wardrobe in the garb of a textured wooden accent. The monochromatic stone laminate in a fluted texture gives a welcome break from warm tones. Another pattern which highlights the master bedroom is the fluted rafters next to the bathroom.

The double shutter wardrobe expertly hides in a bar unit. The Jali pattern created for storage matches that of the sofa set in the living room. Plus, the handless doors accentuate its appeal. Details like the hanging lights are included to bring the room into the spotlight.
Prayer room: A value add-on
The last element of this budget-friendly interior is a special puja room, created upon the client’s request, which doubles up as a guest bedroom. It comprises a bed and a wardrobe in the same one line to make the best out of the available space. A structured wooden mandir is placed on the opposite side.
