Dear Carolyn, Thanks for your advice. Wood of 5mm thickness will be a good idea . It will help painting remain straight. I can slide it through a groove on wooden bars top and above. The wall I am describing is the one on left side as you enter. I love this painting as it depicts joy and celebration and you always get a smile when you look at it. Regards, Surendra

Hi Rorli, I hope you are doing well. Congratulations on the space! The best way to cozy up a space, without spending a lot is through - Art - I feel the Giant picture on the wall is substracting from the space rather than adding to it. You can replace it with something beautiful that you like and/ or a medium sized framed mirror - This will reflect all that beautiful light in your apartment and make it more spacious. You can add a wall hanging in the empty wall space near the bar area. Rugs - A giant rug which accomodates bothe th sofas rather than just the coffee table. This will also make the room look bigger. However, It is important to buy a plain or maximum two tone rug for this effect to work. If buying a rug with lots of detail, please buy it in a lighter color. Cushions - Lost of colorful fluffy cushions in various shapes and textures and a couple of throws wil help balance out the beigeyness of the sofas. Lighting - Adding fairylights in the balcony and a couple of tall lamps in corners will help too. If you can, replace the central light with a chandelier of your choice. Plants - A few indoor plants add that homey feeling while having the added bonus of supplying oxygen. You can also opt for fake plants, if you don't want to buy real ones. Common color scheme - This is the most important aspect because even after buying new furniture, it may not look good if everything is mis-matched. To make the room feel more spacious, you can shift the light in the corner next to sofa, after removing the sofa from the corner a bit. You can also just replace the single seater with a luxurious Armchair of your choice , tilted to face the tv and put the small table next to it to turn it into a viewing area/ reading nook. Above - Blue/ white color scheme works very well with plants. Monochrome neutral color scheme with pillows and throws. If you need any more ideas or help, feel free to contact me. Hope this helps!

The days when our homes were not as intricately designed as the rest of our lives are a far cry now. Today nothing is a better representation of our selves than our own home is. This realization that our home needs to be a space of self-expression as much as say our clothes are or our mobile phone covers, has led to an unprecedented increase in the interior designing industry over the last decade. Following this new set tradition, there are a lot of top interior designers in Mumbai who can help you get your dream house done and dusted. Here’s a list of some of the key points that you need to keep in mind when you are getting your house done the way you want it to be. Do your Research – the first step to most of the things in life is to do your research. And interior designing is no exception to this. Keep exploring, eventually you will stumble upon an image that would be an exact depiction of what you had thought about for your house, or at the very least you will find something that will be the ghost of an idea and looking at it, you will suddenly know what it was that you have always wanted for your home. Go through designers’ portfolio – once you have an inkling of what you want, the next step is to find somebody who will be able to help you to extract that idea from your head and superimpose it on your house. This is where you go ahead and look for the best architects in Mumbai. Go through their portfolios and see which of them seem to you to be the one whose style matches the one you want your house to look like. Plan with your designer – get a taste of the trending home interior design Mumbai, and get planning with your contractor. Share all your ideas and make sure to get their professional insights on what would practically be the best for your home. Trust their opinions, and find a way to balance them with your instincts. Together, you can easily figure out a perfect combination of things to do in your home. Don’t be afraid to experiment – Go for something you have never done before to your house. Experiment. It might end up looking better than you could have imagined. Or it could end up looking hideous. See, that’s the thing about renovating. By its very definition, it essentially never has to end.

Hi Farooq, you should go for wall paneling on that wall with a concealed door. The wardrobe can be a part of the unit in front.
