Residential project by – a Pune-based architecture firm, Alkove-Designhelmed by Ar. Komal Mittal & Ar. Ninada Kashyap. Sprawling over an area of 2,900 sq.ft,this apartment is a minimalistic solace, doused in a thread of unpretentious luxury that is seamlessly juxtaposed with innovative design gestures with an endearing mix of personalities.
The brief for this sprawling 2,900 sq. ft, four-bedroom apartment, with an enviable verdant green view, was of dignified elegance, nuanced with an imaginative DNA that evokes interest and dialogue. The team conjured a creative ‘design tool’, an artistic parley between the dichotomy of the composed curve and the infinity of lines to foster a distinctive lexicon flow through the space with tranquility.
Sunlight streams through panoramic windows across the 44 ft long living room spotlighting the contemporary furniture positioned strategically in pockets for cosy tete-a-tete’s. Mellow tones peppered with dusty pink sofas and a vibrant blue console create an exquisite vignette. Following the cues, the beveled white Italian marble TV back panel and the linear dark oak fluted panel perpetuate the playful alchemy between curves and lines. A sculptured dining table with a rich gold base blurs the lines between furniture and art to regale the dining area, which is further spirited with blue and grey hues in conversation with a fragmented mirror set with gold accents.
Sauntering through the rounded doorway to more intimate spaces, a pristine white, brass embellished marble altar stands majestically flanked by a dark fluted wooden backdrop with niches homing idols that radiates a sanctimonious aura along the corridor. The kitchen, a state of art culinary delight in taupe tones and dark fluted glass panels exhibits sumptuous storage and efficient maneuvering space to cater to the family’s gatherings.
The young couple’s bedroom is a serene beige and blue oasis, where gold accented curved handles, fluted groves on the walls and arresting study cum TV console keep up with the curvilinear synchrony. The Awww moment comes in the young couple’s baby girl’s room, born during the designing phase, where refreshing beige, taupe and dusty pink hues, a customized wallpaper with a botanical theme and curved silhouette emanates the playful mood board. A dreamy concoction of a blush pink bed against gossamer grey walls in the sister room vibrates with a unique rhythm of the two geometric elements to cast a spell of sophistication. A parallel color palette flows through the parent’s calm and tranquil bedroom, nuanced with a bold blue lounge chair, gold accented wall lamps and mirror, allowing the oblong cantilevered planter box reiterates the creative design tool.
