Livingetc India Magazine - September 2025

In this issue

Our September issue turns a lens on bringing our interiors to life with layering, colour, and vibrancy — qualities that feel especially right as the festive season begins. The focus is on design that adds depth without excess, and personality without pretense.
In Trending, experts like Shivani Raina, Sahiba Madan, Priyanka Thaker, and Smita Thomas share their unique approaches to decorating walls, while we gather an inspiring mix of living room elements that shape how we live and host. The edit continues with artisanal decor from Nilaya Anthology, a textile collaboration between Obeetee and Varun Rana, and WITHIN’s craft-led furniture — where pattern, artisanship, and intricacy abound. Conversations with The Last Goldfish and Sumessh Menon, alongside the theatrical retail worlds of Studio Ipsa and Sanjyt Singh, expand the dialogue with distinct points of view.
Our Decorating pages offer fresh living room takes, and in Homes, we look at how different stylistic influences layer into atmosphere: Studio Couch Potato leans coastal, Kavan Shah Design Studio draws on heritage and heirlooms, SIAN Architects reimagines a colonial-era home with a fresh legacy, and Kiran Gala & Associates build a story of sophisticated warmth
We finally close with a peek into Morocco’s La Mamounia — a study in heritage craft and lush interiors that remind us how design and travel are often inseparable. Wrapped in colour, craft, and conversation, our September issue joyously sets the tone for the months to come.
