Nestled within a luxury residential development anchored by expansive glass windows overlooking lush greenery, this Gurgaon home, envisioned by Ar. Sonali Bhagwati, Design Partner at Designplus Architecture (DPA), is defined by light, openness, and restraint. Conceived as a 7400-square-foot apartment in one of the city’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, the residence embraces a clear “less is more” philosophy. From the moment one steps inside, a sense of calm and spatial clarity sets the tone. This luxury apartment’s most defining feature lies in the minimalistic design, evident in the understated material palette, textured walls, flooring patterns and tonal furnishings. “For the interiors here, we deliberately chose a light colour palette with soft contrasts and textural details,” elaborates Ar. Sonali Bhagwati, who aimed at bringing a sense of quiet luxury to this contemporary home. The repetitive fluted patterns, as do the colourful artworks peppered throughout the home, exemplify this approach by creating a visual interest amidst the monotony of the neutral palette. The layout of this residence is driven by functionality and enriched by materiality. The spatial narrative unfolds from the elevator lobby (exclusive to this apartment), which leads to the entrance, through a fire-rated glass door, visually integrating the home before one’s entry. The marble flooring has also been laid seamlessly, tying up the lobby with the entrance. Upon entry, a console with metal accents complements the whites of the walls and the textured greys of the marble floor and vibrant artwork, taking pride of place in the monochromatic interior, along with the statement pendant lighting. Meandering through the lobby reveals an interconnected living and dining area in soft hues that simultaneously calm the senses while highlighting interior details. A palette of soft beiges, creams, and walnut tones is accentuated by the bold grey wallpaper and matt gold finishes on the dining wall, building depth and drama. On the other hand, the leather-clad wall unit and the tinted mirror add to the subdued luxury of the home. The artworks represent the client's personality. Drop light installations made of borosilicate glass serve as art pieces in the day and eclectic sources of ambient light in the evenings. Apart from the 'all white' approach, the favourite part of the design was the clever use of panelling to conceal doors within the walls. “There's always more than what meets the eye, as every wall hides a delightful surprise!”, exclaims Sonali Bhagwati, who ingeniously hid doors leading to functional spaces, maintaining a minimal vocabulary and avoiding the visual noise. Whether the fluted panelling that merges with the doors to the powder room and kitchen or the seamless dyed tulip panels camouflaging the doors in the daughter’s room, every detail contributes to the overarching narrative of understated elegance and thoughtful design. Although each bedroom carries a unique personality, they match the “quiet luxury” theme of the home; the master bedroom incorporates a muted palette accentuated with a bold Central American pattern and colour. The guest bedroom gets a makeover with wallpaper similar to the public zones of the home. On the other hand, the daughter’s room models functional ingenuity with the use of the dyed tulip panels that smoothly integrate with the doors, creating a clean and harmonious outlook. Bath spaces are no exception to crafting individual stories with a unique palette of black onyx, glass, and other textural details that contribute to minimalism. Another significant yet silent participant of this clutter-free residence is the smart technology and automation. Unassuming from the outside, the kitchen hides an automation hub behind its sleek, grey colour palette. Further, the entire home works on smart controls and automation with integrated systems, allowing for a harmonious blend of modern convenience and aesthetic simplicity. Ultimately, this home redefines luxury living through clarity of layout, material discipline, and concealed detailing. Anchored in a philosophy of restraint, it demonstrates how thoughtful design can create a contemporary residence that feels calm, cohesive, and enduring.

Upon entering this resplendent apartment, one is immediately struck by the curved wall opening, which gives a glimpse into the spacious living room. With copious amounts of natural light streaming in through the full-height windows, the first thing one sees in the living room is the captivating orange sofa that serves as the centerpiece. Accentuating the setting with the back wall adorned with curved moldings, painted in a calming beige hue to match the wall and ceiling, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the room’s aesthetic. The inviting and lively atmosphere of the room is further amplified by the TV wall with its ceiling-high blue display unit and a complementing back-lit grey TV panel.

A bar is best when it’s left to do what it does best - set the mood. The bar is designed with a canvas of black, a striking marble showstopper in the middle; a bar peninsula of deep brown marble. The bases curved in strong at one end and the other staggers with slim support - a geometric composition because it’s worth a second look Oh! And how can we forget the halo chandeliers blessing the bar ?

Echoing a fusion of modernity with elements of traditional design, this penthouse within a towering high-rise artfully pairs contemporary elegance with meaningful nods to its family’s Indian heritage. The 4000-square-foot home spread across two floors and four bedrooms has been designed for a couple in their early 40s, their daughter, and their parents who visit regularly. Upon entering the front door, one is greeted in the foyer below a floating staircase. The crystal light with brass detailing gives a visual peek into the brass accent points across the rest of the home—from the grouting within the marble flooring and brass inlay on the walls to the table legs and knobs on the furniture. A trio of gilded mirrors and a hand-carved console table sit beside an intricate Indian shoe cabinet—the first of many thoughtful fusions of new and old. The foyer features warm golden oak floors and custom brass inlaid tiles, setting the tone for refined materials to come.
