A cascading wall wrapped around a column, sculptural shelves adorned with rich Indian handicrafts and a deep red dome in the middle of it all—designer Masaba Gupta’s (houseofmasaba) newest store is a sanctuary of high design with its soft curves and gentle slopes in moody tones. Unlike the pristine whites that have defined the brand’s outposts so far, shades of terracotta and earth dominate the bridal store as an immersive spatial experience.

Located in Delhi’s favourite design hub, the historic district of Mehrauli, the 3,000-square-foot flagship replicates the fluidity, volume, and the ebb and flow of fabric, the very foundation of the brand, with curvilinear volume and sculptural form. “One of the briefs I received from Masaba Gupta was to create different sections within the space which can be used for different purposes,” says Sanchit Arora, principal architect at Renesa Architecture Design Interiors Studio (renesa.architects) and the designer of the store. “So we took elements of the existing structure—a 70-year-old crafts emporium—and repurposed them to carve out trial rooms, display areas and waiting lounges.”

The idea, says Arora, was to create a sanctum-like atmosphere that is equally meditative and luxurious, and also reflects Gupta’s bold and individualistic brand language. “It was easy to erect straight walls but I wanted to bring in depth and drama that aligns with the brand’s language.” And so, Arora started by bringing in sculptural elements—circular pillars, cascading partitions, meandering walkways and three-dimensional domes—that not just create breaks and pauses but also engage the eye.

Romantic strolls through the garden reveal intimate nooks and secret hideouts nestled in the foliage of this home in Alibag, created by architects Kunal Maniar (kunalmaniarassociates) and Rahul Mehrotra (rma_architects).

In the central courtyard of a home in Alibag stands a champa tree in semi-cascade, its fragrance spilling like uncontained joy into the dining area, the living room, and the swimming pool. Landscape architect Kunal Maniar, who planted the lone beauty in memory of #GeoffreyBawa, feels there is no way one can go wrong with a champa tree: “It’s like that classic Banarasi sari in a woman’s wardrobe.” Maniar’s soft spot for nostalgia is a recurring motif in the two-acre property— one that presents itself strongly in the way he has annexed ideas of intelligent, biophilic landscape design with memories of comfort borrowed from childhood. For instance, clusters of mango trees, sculpted to form an igloo, nestle charpoys within—a perfect spot to submit to an afternoon siesta under the overhang of sweet, succulent mangoes. “We have come to a point where we find it easier to plonk a sun umbrella in the middle of the lawn. It’s as if we have forgotten the joy of resting under the shade of a tree,” says Maniar. In deference to the old ways, his team—including Hamza Barafwala, Pandurang Patil, Nikhil Kawale and Chetan Mhatre—planted heliconias all around, for gardeners to trim and adorn pots and vases around the house. “Why order hydrangeas from another city when you can have local, homegrown flowers? Our mothers did that every time they cut a few flowers from the home garden and arranged them—leaves, branches, and all—in a vase.” 

What Maniar feels grateful for, though, is that his earth-loving vision is the same as the one espoused by the legendary architect on the project, Rahul Mehrotra. “Rahul is a maverick at what he does and I love that about his work. He created lots of opportunities for me to design unique spaces in the landscape.”

When interior designer Dina Sebti (dinasebtiarchitecture) was brought on board to redecorate this Casablanca home, she had to tread a fine line between honouring its past and preparing it for the future: built in the 1960s, the 1,500-square-metre Morocco property had been entirely reimagined some 20 years later by the esteemed architect Jacqueline Alluchon, founder of Casamémoire, an association dedicated to preserving Casablanca’s architectural heritage. No pressure, then.

“From the very first moment, I was struck by the serenity of the house,” Sebti recalls. “It radiated a soft, cocoon-like energy. The garden was filled with birdsong, and the house had a generously proportioned layout, but what struck me most was the art that covered many of the walls. It gave the place a strong visual and emotional identity.”

The owner of this Casablanca home is a prominent collector, so creating a space in which art could be displayed with style and sensitivity was key to Sebti’s brief (the house has one of the most expansive collections of Moroccan masters, such as Mohamed Melehi, Chaïbia Talal, Mahi Binebine and Hassan El Glaoui, as well as works by European greats including Picasso, Miró and Buffet). To that end, one immediate issue presented itself: the ground floor lacked natural light, and some of the finishes needed to be modernised. Sebti’s task, as she saw it, was clear: “To bring renewed clarity and modernity to the space, without disturbing its authentic soul,” and to fulfil the client’s wish for “a home that felt comfortable, accessible and bright”.

Inside Morvi palace, one of the purest representations of #artdeco style in India. 

Four hours west of Ahmedabad, along a spectacularly straight road dotted with occasional settlements, sits one of India’s most surprising architectural masterpieces: a maharaja’s palace designed to conform to the purest precepts of art deco style. 

When the palace was built in 1942, it represented a radical shift from traditional palace architecture of the time. Perhaps that’s why its owner, late Thakur Mahendrasinh, christened it the New Palace. He was the last maharaja of Morvi—a town which, historically, was a principality ruled by the warrior clan of Jadeja Rajputs. As remote as the New Palace feels geographically, it is a building firmly situated in the pivots of history. Thakur Mahendrasinh took art deco to its biggest canvas possible with a palace designed by British architectural firm Gregson, Batley & King and constructed by the legendary Shapoorji Pallonji. 

The New Palace, a two-storey structure with perfectly rounded edges on two corners, sits square in the centre of a large estate. The palace itself occupies only a tenth of the site. The cylindrical columns that line its façade give the exterior the quintessential geometry of art deco. I enter through the main door, into a terrazzo corridor that runs along the building’s periphery. Rows and rows of elaborately furnished drawing and dining rooms peel off from the corridor, enclosing the two open inner courtyards with fountains. The New Palace brings together the best of European art deco but its particular uniqueness lies in the way it has traditional Indian typologies at its heart, such as these cooling central spaces.

Six months ago, Chiki Doshi (mahendra_doshi_est_1974) rang up Elsie Nanji (elsienanji) with a germ of an idea that he’d been mulling over. “I’ve been collecting so much through the decades—from furniture and sculptures to ceramics and objets d’art—I felt like putting this intricately vast collection of pieces out there for the world to see…in a unique way. And I personally love lamps—I always have, you’ll never see overhead lights in my home. So, I wondered if we could play around with both these loves,” he relates. He points out that Nanji is known to go against the norm “with no formula in mind, just playing with instinct.” What began as a call for bouncing off ideas soon turned to the duo putting together a show titled Echoes in Light. 

From salvaged stone pillars and temple figurines to Chinese ceramics—over 150 artefacts spanning various eras and design movements have been reborn as luminous, one-of-a-kind lamps—each one topped with a statement shade that adds a bold, contemporary layer to its storied past. And often, the shade rivals the antique below it: think vintage brocade meticulously pleated, hand-painted fabrics stretched into elegant forms, even sheer mesh that casts patterned shadows. Each shade was meticulously crafted by expert artisans in Pune and Delhi, ensuring that every finish, fold, and stitch honours the antique beneath it. Together, Doshi and Nanji have built stories—layering the old with the unexpected, shaping pieces from the past for a contemporary eye. “If it holds meaning,” Nanji muses, holding up a vintage rotary telephone, “a piece of history can belong in any home today. It just needs to be seen in the right light.”

The residents of this Mumbai duplex presented a very succinct brief to Palak Kothari and Rashmi Shinde, lead designers at Orchestrated Chambers (orchestratedchambers). The family wanted a home that was minimal and clutter-free, something that was easy to take care of. To this brief, Kothari and Shinde added the stipulation that the home, despite being minimal, must be full of quiet character. The result is a home that straddles both worlds effortlessly, and in the words of the designers is, “comfortable, stylish, and built to last.” 

Kothari and Shinde decided to use textural minimalism to infuse character into the home, while still maintaining its simplicity. To achieve this, selecting the correct material palette was of the utmost importance. The designers started with a neutral beige base, to which they added the raw industrial allure of metal, and the rugged beauty of granite that is softened by the natural warmth and depth of wood; soft fabric furnishings and lime washed walls round off this wonderfully tactile palette without being visually oppressive. As the designers explain, “Each material has been selected with intention, never overpowering, and always enhancing the warmth and quiet elegance of the space.”

Creatives Rishi Roy and Vibhuti Dhaundiyal define their fashion label (rishiandvibhuti) as unapologetically bold. It screams dramatic silhouettes, meticulous tailoring, fierce colours, and a marriage of traditional and modern nuances. For their 4,000-square-foot flagship store in Delhi’s Chattarpur, they enlisted principal architect Nikita Jain of IndiHaus (indihaus_design) to create an equally theatrical, pattern- and print-heavy space where consumers can feel the movement of balance. “For us, this isn’t just a store where clothes live; it’s where our world unfolds. Months of obsessive planning with every proportion, texture, and sightline translated into a retail space where our love for restraint drama comes to life,” share Rishi and Vibhuti.

The duo’s deeply personal and layered design philosophy inspired Nikita and her design team, Chaitanya Gaur and Bhargavi Ladha, to focus on artisanal maximalism with expressive, craft-led detailing in a setting which she describes as ‘contemporary Indian luxe’. She says, “The space mirrors the brand’s identity at every layer—from subtle textured paints and sheer lighting for prêt wear to gradually introducing bolder materials and deeper tones and patterns, just like their collections. Their signature prints are used on ceiling wallpapers, lampshades, and cabinet insets. From earthy neutrals to maroons and greens, every design decision reflects their story through fabric.”

Pooja and Chetan, the duo behind Coast & Co. (coastandco_restaurant), a 2,036-square-foot restaurant in Pune, had one vision in mind — to give people the feeling of being by the coast. This meant that the food, interiors, and ambience had to come together seamlessly to transport guests to the shoreline. While they focused on food by highlighting hyper-local masalas and age-old cooking traditions, they turned to another duo who could translate their coastal dream into a spatial experience.

Tejas Shintre and Ojas Hiwrekar, co-founders of Koriv Design Studio (koriv.in), drew inspiration from the quiet elegance of the coast, with its soft textures, organic forms, and the play of natural light. “We interpreted coastal sensibilities through a muted material palette and flowing forms that mirror the fluidity of water and sand,” explain the designers. The result is a space that doesn’t just serve food, but completes the illusion of being gently embraced by the shore.

Bringing in the fluidity of the shore, the building’s exterior features soft-edged windows that break away from the rigid orthogonal grid. These gentle curves offer a preview of the design language within, evoking the ease and rhythm of coastal landscapes. Framing views of the surrounding greenery and flooding the interiors with natural light, the openings create a bright, airy, and inviting atmosphere, much like a day by the sea.

With a sculptural design, Forest of Peace in Nardipur, a rural district in Gujarat, India, offers a spiritual approach to elder care, creating a blueprint for modern old age home concepts in a society that still values multi-generational joint family structures.

“In most parts of rural India, senior citizens often gravitate toward spaces that offer spiritual connection, reflection on self, and a sense of community,” explains Girisha Gajjar, principal architect at Raasa Architects (raasa_architects). “After retirement, with more free time and fewer responsibilities at home, elders frequently seek environments where they can engage in spiritual activities, connect with peers, and contribute to the well-being of others through voluntary service.”

This observation has proved prophetic in the case of the Forest of Peace, a 16,000-square-foot ashram in the rural village of Nardipur, near Gandhinagar, where a quiet revolution in elder care is taking shape through architecture. What began as a formalisation of a community-built spiritual complex has organically evolved into something more significant: a model for how India might address the needs of its ageing population without abandoning deeply held cultural values about family and community care.

In Mumbai’s kinetic landscape—where steel-and-glass towers rise beside heritage façades—Fairmont Mumbai stands as a cinematic pause: a modern-day terminus that reimagines the glamour of the 1920s New York Art Deco. The hotel’s art narrative celebrates Mumbai’s vibrant history. A Walk in the Garden reimagines the Hanging Gardens through Indian craft traditions, while kaleidoscopic murals honours Mumbai’s iconic landmarks.

Inside, the grandeur unfolds in a symphony of marble, brass, and velvet—black-and-white Deco floors meet vintage Maharashtrian portraits, while sweeping curves and stained-glass ceilings echo the romance of travel and design. Each dining venue contributes to this story: Madeleine de Proust evokes genteel afternoon teas with cherry-blossom-inspired art installations, The Hedonist pulses with a Jazz Age rhythm through art made from vintage jazz discs and metallic floral installations, The Merchants pays tribute to Mumbai’s dabbawalas with embroidered portraits and sculptural tiffin artifacts, and Oryn channels the romance of 1920s Shanghai cinema with hand-embroidered dragons and bioscope-inspired artifacts. Together, these elements weave a seamless journey through the 1920s, Mumbai, and the travel story—the three pillars that form the foundation of the hotel’s art narrative. Blu Xone encapsulates the essence of Mumbai’s monsoons evoking a sense of calmness.

From serene lobbies to immersive dining spaces, every detail is curated to evoke a sense of drama, intimacy, and timeless luxury.

Standing proudly in a city that houses the world’s second-largest Art Deco collection, Fairmont Mumbai is more than a hotel—it is a cinematic pause, a cultural landmark, and a living tribute to timeless design. 2025-08-27 21:33:54 .. 1,004 -54% 3 -81%
In the last four years, actor Sonam Kapoor (sonamkapoor) has welcomed AD into two of her homes: an elegant, art-filled apartment in London’s Notting Hill and an unabashedly maximalist residence in Mumbai. Both spaces—though strikingly distinctive, with different creative co-collaborators—are manifestations of Kapoor’s singular aptitude for antiquing, genuine reverence for craftsmanship, and natural instinct for great style. Her latest, a chic pied-à-terre in Bandra, is no exception. Kapoor has turned the 800-square-foot apartment into a private guesthouse for visiting friends and family that feels like a natural extension of her winsome visual world. 

For the interiors, the actor turned to architect Samkit Vakil of Studio Sky (studio_s.k.y) and stylist-decorator Shreya Mantri (shreyamantri), who also helms the home furnishings and lifestyle brand Altrove (altrove.in). Right at the outset, Kapoor’s brief to both parties was that the space had to feel intimate and expressive; more an extension of her story than a conventional guesthouse. Vakil and Mantri had just a few short months to deliver the final interior and worked in tandem, each assuming a clearly defined role.

The home opens into an intimate living and dining area where a vintage botanical sensibility takes hold. Peppered through the space, in addition to new purchases, are antiques from Kapoor’s extensive personal collection. “She has impeccable taste and owns some truly striking pieces, so instead of starting from scratch, a large part of our job was about editing and contextualising what she already had,” says Vakil. “We built rooms around key heirlooms and finds, making sure they felt intentional and not just placed.”

Photographer Ashish Shah (ashishisshah) acknowledges the deep relationships between body and form in his placement of objects such as urns and amphoras. Supermodel Lakshmi Menon perceives the beginning of creation in the composition of the female form set against a bindu.

Shot on a rainy June day at Mahendra Doshi’s—Bombay’s legacy antiques studio—an abstract seed of an idea found creative expression and eventually graced the cover of our annual September Style Issue. 
We were in search of a point of origin; where the body, space and form are in dialogue, where each composition portrays a pure elemental simplicity to being loaded with symbolism. 
And yet, in essence, it’s just a bunch of people in a kinship of ideas, having fun with a shoot. 

This is a collaborative cover and the concept comes from all members: supermodel Lakshmi Menon (menonlakshmi), photographer Ashish Shah (ashishisshah) and antiquarian Chiki Doshi (mahendra_doshi_est_1974)—friends who came together purely for the love of making art. And we are ever grateful to them.

If earthy neutrals have been feeling overdone in design lately, this Bengaluru duplex by Sabyasachi Routray and Anisha Menon of ma+rs (maplusrs) proves that they are anything but predictable. “A key part of our design approach is to create a quiet and changeable backdrop for living, not just a static display,” begins Routray. The design thus was curated as a serene, blank canvas upon which the homeowners—a family of four humans and two cats—layered their own colourful life and personality through warm, muted tones.

But this canvas was rather unusual, for the homeowners intended to convert two separate 3BHK apartments into a sprawling, cohesive duplex. This meant a full-scale renovation with extensive spatial reorganization, beginning of course, with physically bridging the two floors. A custom-designed staircase becomes the central focus, almost akin to a work of art. The sleek, metal structure in a calming sage green brings to mind industrial efficiency, with the wooden treads adding an organic warmth. But it’s the striking stone column featuring delicate Indian carvings that elevates the insertion, for it captures the heart of the design language—to bridge a modern aesthetic with a subtle ode to Indian traditions.

At TARC Ishva, space isn’t merely constructed, it is curated.

A private lift foyer unfolds into a perfectly proportioned living expanse, its symmetry anchored by the Brahmasthan, the spiritual heart of Indian architecture as envisioned in Vastu. Floor-to-ceiling glass dissolves the boundary between indoors and horizon, opening to a sweeping deck where mornings linger and evenings gather.

Every line is intentional, every angle invites light, and every detail reflects the philosophy of four-sided openness. Inspired by India’s timeless principles yet shaped for a global way of living, Ishva is not just a home, it is an axis where design, culture, and modernity converge.
