Arched openings where introduced into the original 18-inch thick, solid stone walls, opening up the renovated kitchen to the adjacent dining and family rooms. A new staircase was relocated and constructed to access the open second floor, which had once slept the family’s 11 children.

Comments (12)So you like purple? Please buy soft lavender curtains, or some with purple printed flowers, I've had dark purple curtains in my old house (3meter high ceilings) and it looks really dark when they're closed. Add a purple sofa or lots of purple accents to keep it calm and friendly. You could paint the window wall a deep eggplant (not the other walls because of light) with creamy curtains....See MoreExterior (Building Front) wall decoration ideas - Contemporary looks.
Comments (10)Dear Shubham, I am Ravi Prakash and I am an Architect. A lot of information required to start with any project, like context, site, plot, budget, timelines and many more. It appears like you had not consult a professional assistance for your hotel as I don't see anything interesting in this building. Its just a boring box with lot of windows. Hotels are hospitality buildings where service and comfort to the guests/visitors is the prime concern. It has to be a beautiful building with rich, healthy and welcoming environment. If you are looking for professional consultancy you can share your contact here or can contact me. Thanks and Regards Ar. Ravi Prakash 8882204074 ar.ravi2013@gmail.com...See MoreFront elevation
Comments (3)Hello there, Please mention the directions and width of the naksha. My suggestion would be to go with an open plan 1 BHK layout in the ground floor and a 3 BHK first floor. As for the elevation, you could replace the existing stairwell with a spiral staircase and slatted wood shades to provide a shade structure to the front elevation. Also, you could replace the exisitng tiles with ACP/ stone tiles which will entirely transform the hosue. The boundary wall also needs to be lowered a little bit to provide adequate ventilation. Geometric MS grills/ jaali could compensate security concerns....See MoreHow to use combination of wooden & coloured cement tiles for flooring?
Comments (5)Hello there, When you are going for wooden and concrete texture, the decor you need to put must complement the interiors. If going for traditional and rustic finishes, athangudi tiles would really help for outdoor and indoors as well. They go seamlessly well with wooden textured tiiles/ wooden floors/ Try to add wooden rafters/ slats to sitouts and balconies to enhance a few aesthetics. If going for contemporary finish, try IPS (Indian Patent Stone) flooring for outdoors and indoors as well. These are basically concrete slabs with iron oxide paints on top and come in a wide array of colors including copper sulphate blue. If planning for cement tiles, try Bharat Floorings . They have been manufacturing concrete tiles for almost century. Blue with wooden, if used generously, lends a beach house/ marine theme to overall decor . If that's your preference, then do not hesitate for a moment. Regards, Aurum Ideas and Spaces Bhubaneswar...See More
