A modern contemporary theme has been followed in the entire space with hints of beautiful colours and playing with arches makes this blank spatial canvas come alive. The brief from our client was to have an experience of minimal, calm, balanced apartment.
The Arch house is a compact 3bhk apartment of 1100 square-feet located at ravet, pune. Home to a young couple and their extended family it counted natural light and ventilation as advantage. The entire space has been remodelled with the new brief. The apartment is designed by keeping in mind clients design taste for modern contemporary and planned in a way that follows the vastu principles. The space has been designed by keeping in mind everyone's different requirement and taste and still blending them all together.
The overall interior space is kept white to make the space look airy and light while meeting the aesthetically functional requirements. And we used hints of Colour, texture, pattern, and some wood to compliment the white walls and highlight the areas. From The entrance door one notices welcoming buddha statue rested on the console that flows inside through the storage unit. On entering, on the left is a living room overlooking the wide balcony is a calm zone of the house. On future right is custom made banquette dining seating. Further ahead is kitchen on the left and mandir on right. After walking further ahead in the arch passage, a common bathroom lies on the left and parent’s bedroom on right and other two master bedrooms connecting ahead.

And added calmness to the living room through white fluted Tv panel and white walls. The Arch hallway is the highlight of the house which starts from the entrance and connects to kitchen and all the bedrooms. A series of arch has been used throughout the space to add element in the space.
