As an architect, nothing gets better than finding clients who love art, natural light, and homes that don't feel like you are walking into a hotel. There's something deeply satisfying about a brief that matches exactly with the things you believe in.
A young couple, recently married, were moving into their first home together, a plot nestled in the middle of Maharani Bagh, New Delhi. Trees on every side, light coming in from directions you didn't expect. When your site does that much of the work, you know you're off to a good start.
The direction was simple - No cohesive mood board, no single aesthetic thread you could pull from one end to the other. They wanted each room to have its own personality.The throughline, if there is one, is nature. Raw wood, stone, floral prints that actually have history, art that has been passed down through generations and carries the fingerprints of the people who loved it before. The family had been collecting for years. My job was simply to give each piece a room of its own.
