Designed as a contemporary home layered with references to the client’s Kerala heritage, this residence balances modern spatial planning with nostalgia, warmth and a strong sense of personal identity. The brief centred around creating a home that felt sophisticated yet deeply lived-in, with generous spaces for entertaining, collecting art and displaying heirloom furniture. A mix of restored family furniture, contemporary layouts and curated artwork creates visual contrast throughout the home. Circular concentric terrazzo tiles introduce movement into the living areas while black-and-white elements maintain a restrained and timeless palette. The four-poster bed, layered textures and vintage accents add character without overwhelming the overall calmness of the interiors.
