Kapil Agarwal Residence

The vision was concocted into a space that would have minimized barriers and pose for elegant décor and flamboyance through its volume and scale, to amplify the spaciousness of the four bedroom duplex apartment making it boundless in order to impart a distinct appeal to the entire space and render it with a magnanimous ambiance.


The concept primarily encompasses the strategy of imparting massiveness to a space and creating the illusion of ‘no barriers’. The effective usage of elements such as French windows or doors is one of the most successful elements of such a game plan. Other décor assets such as a flight of birds installed along the wall of the staircase, subtly introduces the idea of ‘verticality’. To add up to the core concept, the additional spaces have been persuaded by the perception of the

user of the particular realm. The design team believes in being sensitive to the client’s acumen and hence has tried to evoke their personalities through their respective spaces.


At the onset of space design, we stumble upon the entrance door that is done

with a collation of dark and light wooden veneer. It proves to provide the apt

entrance aura dipped in a modernist approach. The minimalist entrance lobby

provides an impeccable transition arena before one delves into the primary

zones.


The design, then, meanders one’s way into grandeur of the common living and

dining area. Separated from the entrance lobby by a series of lime toned blinds,

the enormity of this space is enveloped in a similar minimalist approach, using

pure white tones blended with clouded greys. The accentuating facet of this

space, is a false ceiling pattern above the dining that is harmonically

complemented on a wall panelling in the living area. Using subtle complements,

this realm has a defined ambiance that it sets the individual in.


The living cum dining provides an access to a contemporary kitchen that is

decked up in shades of grey and silver. Being brimmed with a variety of modern

kitchen appliances, it also houses an open window to provide visual connectivity

with the dining space and is also in line with the current island kitchen concept.
