DESIGN FOR THE AGES

Five homes, five distinct design styles that help decode how to curate age-appropriate spaces

- POOJA BIHANI

As one moves through various stages and phases of life, the spaces you reside in become a reflection of the same. The role played by our homes is in not just reflecting who we are, but also our growth as individuals and collecting memories along that journey. A Tale of Five Homes is a visual journey through the lives of five families who found their haven on the first floor of one of the towers at One10, a gated community in Kolkata.

EMBRACE MINIMALISM 

AGE GROUP Early 30s

DESIGN STYLE Minimalism

ELEMENTS OF THE STYLE Transformative furniture, space planning for multipurpose usage and efficient multitasking.

WHY IT WORKS Their home reflects their lifestyle as a young working couple with an infant, especially the transformational furniture that helps them with the flexibility of various activities. Having a dining table that can be converted into a workstation during the day is easy functionality. The use of the colour red in the apartment in exciting splashes exudes the energy of abundance and prosperity along with growth and dynamism.
