Classy All the Way

On the first floor of the building Address 12, is Jayshree Patel’s home, a plush residence with an exquisite charm. Situated in a high-end locality in Vadodara, this 2000 sq ft apartment oozes class all the way.

For this project, Architects Patel and Tanvi Rajpurohit from a + t associates created a visual language that is a blend of their characteristic functional style and the client’s brief. And the brief was clear - keep it young, buoyant and cheerful, but not overenthusiastic and flashy. Also, the preference was for a minimalistic, contemporary type of styling.

Tanvi Rajpurohit from a + t associates says, “The client was based out of London, and was used to a décor that is easy to maintain. She was unambiguous about not wanting too many intricate details in the design that would make it difficult to ensure a clean upkeep.”

The design team satisfied this requirement cleverly by introducing very few artefacts in the first place and also only those that signified luxury in a unique way. The first visual cue to this meets us right in the foyer in the form of a wooden hanging console unit paired with a backdrop of a half veneer wall panelling with grooves and an off centre suspended lamp. To add more drama, a custom designed mirror in the form of a dried leaf is placed in an asymmetrical format.
