Mr. Sachin Desai’s house is a residential project in Baner which had to be designed on the specific guidelines of the fusion of Indian and contemporary concepts. To emphasise the Indian ethos yet give it a contemporary feel, wood was predominantly used throughout the décor. The carvings, figurines, and the designs all matched up the client’s requirement of the apartment with an Indian feel. Lighter tones and colours have been used to contrast with the dark colour of the wood and give the area a spacious vibe. The spaces have been utilised in a resourceful manner to provide the client with ample storage and seating space. The bedrooms too have been kept simple yet elegant and have been designed on the concept of minimalism. The end result was that of a well-balanced, clutter-free, modern interior with a traditional Indian look and feel.

Submission detail Company Name: Design Unbound Mobile Number: Sagar Kudtarkar: 9833713555 Email: designunbound.in@gmail.com Project Details Project Name: The Lime House Location: Nerul, Navi Mumbai Size: 700 sqft. USP: Using natural and sustainable materials instead of commercial materials like gypsum, paint and plywood reduces the ecological impact on the environment Collaborators: M-lime, Khyati Patel. Project Brief The Design aim of the “Lime House” revolves around transforming the concept of interior design in dense urban cities like Mumbai. The owners of this small two-bedroom apartment in an old gated colony of Nerul, Navi Mumbai approached us while looking for someone ‘who could understand the use of natural or recycled materials in making a simple, comfortable living space.’ Incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly materials in your house is not only for the benefit of being sustainable, but also to protect our ecosystem. We worked in collaboration with the owners and other material experts to consciously design the space, and improve their quality of life. The project focuses on using sustainable materials with passive design strategies and user-oriented furniture design. Rising air temperatures due to global warming indicate an urgent need of keeping indoors comfortable without increased use of electricity for air conditioning. The west and south-facing apartment created an added challenge with its internal temperature rising due to its walls being exposed to the sun. Hence in this project, We are revisiting the principles of houses built with mud and lime plaster, which were prevalent before today’s concrete boom with quick yet unsustainable solutions. A wall plastered with cement or gypsum obstructs the transfer of moisture through it because the plaster and paint coat act as a layer of plastic. However, walls plastered with lime have high levels of porosity which allows moisture to pass through them, reducing dampness or condensation by water leakages happening on surfaces during monsoons. So instead of damaging the plaster and surface of internal walls, the water eventually evaporates on its own. The transfer of latent heat from the moisture in the walls also helps keep them cooler in summer. It also repels dust rather than attracting it. The elevated pH of lime prevents the growth of mould and makes interior air quality healthier in general and specifically for people with allergies. The Lime plaster was made with natural aggregates using mineral pigments for different colours obtained from mineral pigments. Surkhi or brickbat powder can be obtained by crushing and sieving salvaged bricks from construction waste, further reducing the use of virgin materials like river sand required in the base coat. We made samples involving different quantities of surkhi and river sand to come up with a mix best suitable for the climatic conditions of the site. The project also integrates passive design strategies by replacing the builder-fitted sliding windows having a limited opening, with fully openable windowsThis enhance the natural ventilation in all rooms. The furniture layout of the house is such that spaces can be used in multipurpose ways. Window seating becomes a part of the dining area when the table is unfolded. The same space, after reárranging furniture, can be used to accommodate seating for up to 15 people. A cushioned niche near the master bedroom window also serves two purposes- to be used as a bench with a desk for writing or to enjoy a lazy afternoon nap.
Back To Indian Roots

Witness the nuanced, Indian Heritage-themed Interior Decor project completed in Mumbai; a project that draws from the rich history of Indian architecture, bringing back the roots of our culture into our homes. The remarkably warm undertones used throughout the decor are a subtle nod to the raw and organic elements of Rajasthani's decorative style. Keeping in line with the theme, the sprawling sofas in the living room have been sourced directly from Jodhpur. The eye-catching cushion covers, also sourced from a Designer, add an unmistakable vibrance to the otherwise sombre atmosphere; a classy combo for the ages. Elements such as the cushions contribute to the comfortable, intimate environment that makes places a true home. The use of a consistent palette is the highlight of this home decor project. Right from the ornamental wall panels to the elegant ochre-toned Sabyasachi wallpapers (Pichwai), the colour consistency allows for easy integration of pieces across the country. This space allows for abundant sunlight to create its natural magic; a sun-kissed ivory-tiled floor lighting up the sleek, earthen, walls very similar to the temples of centuries passed. Speaking of inspired Indian heritage, the ornamental decor used to furnish this space has been sourced from across the country, making it a lively potpourri of diverse Indian artefacts and design styles. A traditional decorative piece, this ‘Tree of Life’ inspired gilded pattern rests against the background of solid obsidian, instantly drawing our attention to its unmissable beauty. Combined, these diverse decor elements come together in a lyrical jugalbandi, a duet of traditional elegance coupled with the efficient comfort offered by modern homes. Suffice to say, the space is an arresting display of skilled design. All in all, this project not only offers you a blast from the past but also serves as a welcome break from ubiquitous modern home decor themes. The intimate vibe of a typical Indian home is retained in this contemporary box, yet there is an unmistakable display of grandeur and ornamental glamour that comes only with decor inspired by Indian Heritage. Embrace the coming together of two vastly different worlds in the comfort of one’s own home with the Indian Heritage theme!
