Magnolias Apartment | Essentia Environments | Gurugram
Basically idea was to create a home that bespoke to the owners. I start with the maxim, ‘Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.’ It’s a maxim that all designers – amateur and professional – can still benefit from today. If there’s something you love, whether it’s a piece of furniture, an artwork or collection, think about how best to work your scheme around it. It’s pieces like these that create an individual and cherished interior. -said by Designer
The entrance foyer is separated from the living areas using glass partitions creating a seamless feeling. The Vietnam white marble with brass inlay covers most of the living areas. The floor inlay patterns mimic the pattern on the wall paneling. The column is covered in a gorgeous Nero Saint Laurent marble with brass highlights.
A client who has very high expectations for their project. This is definitely something you should watch out for. It is important to do your best to manage these expectations.
Each area in space planning is accomplished by manipulating the elements of design – shape, mass, light, line, pattern, colour and texture. All furniture is custom-created at the Essentia facility. All artworks specially commissioned by Essentia. Lights are from Klove.
