Here we invite you to “Shushrusha”. A three bhk apartment designed for aged people who are young by nature & classy in lifestyle. It was a challenge for us as a designer to meet the requirements of two different eras. Our client was in the USA. His brother, who was around 65 years old, was the most energetic & enthusiastic fellow. He is the one who makes all the decisions about the project. We were lucky enough that our oldest client gave us all the liberty in design aspects.

We aim to make home interiors a reflection of a client's personality. The home should be something where families take pride in & love to spend time in. Our efficient team, customized home interiordesigns incorporate all the needs in every nook of the space. We always try to tie décor with design expertise &form new details which create the perfect interior design concept.

Our first idea was to make the ambience very simple, no heavy details & to leave large open spaces. To achieve that concept, we avoided partition & heavy panelling in common areas. We have put in minimal & modest furniture to create openness.

In the entrance foyer we put a beautiful shreenathji frame in such a way that generates positivity & gives respect to our client’s ideology. The living room is one of the finest spaces, which is designed with minimal details & soothing colors. The TV unit wall is designed with vitrified tiles & the back side of the sofa is PU finished, highlighted with murals & decorative light fixtures. Here we have used tins &shades of grey. One corner of the living room had an attractive hanging storage unit with a few display shelves, which caters all the attention due to the veneer finished look.

A simple ledge is moving in continuation of the service counter which is purposely designed to display our fabric artwork frame, which is hand wowed with mdf motifs & decorated with mirrors. In the dining area, we design a console table with a wooden carved belt & wooden legs which have a contemporary look. We have maintained minimalism by keeping other things in shuttle means.

There are two master bedrooms in the house. One master bedroom is designed very sensitively with warm colours. We have generated a contemporary look with modern finishing materials. We shaped space within space for different moods to make someone comfortable & relaxed. We always try to incorporate different artwork into our decor. Considering wall mural artwork in mind, the first master bedroom is designed in a very unique way. Two obstructive columns were converted into an attractive centred arch where talented artist Sanjaybhai made a beautiful wall mural which enhanced the beauty of the whole room.

Another master bedroom, where we have created retro details with a modern touch. Three frames of colored moulded patti attract all the attention once you enter into the room. Color palette & customised art pieces are synchronised well to achieve the theme. Wooden floor, simple grooves in the TVside wall & a veneer finished dressing unit added beauty to the space. All the artwork is placed in such a way that it gives individuals light for grace.
