PROJECT CONCEPT

An early childhood home has an everlasting impression on a young brain. The experiences and the ambience of that time remains as a collective and unforgettable memory. When we met the client for our first design discussion, they had this beautiful farmhouse in the outskirts of Ahmedabad. They wanted this space to remind them of their childhood. They remembered the unique steep wooden staircase, wooden columns with carvings, articulated flooring, an earthy feeling in the house, a chair and chandelier etc. The experience of the house was so profound that they wanted it to reflect in this new blank space, so that it could be experienced by their upcoming generations as well as relished by the older ones.

As Designers, we thought about the themes and ‘Nostalgia’ was the word we came up with. An abode which reflected the rural & vernacular house of Gujarat with urban comforts. Keeping this theme in mind, all the design elements were carefully crafted while material selection and final finishes. The moodboard had a rustic colour palette, cloth ceiling, terrazzo flooring, all of whom became enriching elements of the space. The bar counter with the old silai machine with all black background was a contemporary touch which matched with the overall theme of the home. For us designing this project was a unique experience, “Nostalgia – Reminiscence of a Childhood Dream!”
