A SYMPHONY OF DESIGNS
July 2023
|Architecture + Design
The residence, designed by the firm Creations, for three generations trying to coexist in a singular built form, knits together different virtues and ideas into a single link to create a symphony of designs
-
“As we evolve our lifestyle, interiors take the primal role of balancing sophistication and functionality,” Shilpi Sonar, Founder of Creations. Breaking free from the constant minimalistic approach towards life, Shilpi and her son Satyadeep believe that ‘life is never just one shade’. Having spent over 35 years in the design industry, Shilpi and Satyadeep are working on a concept they term ‘future classic’. Contemporary design trends fused with the opulence of yesteryears.
The project characteristically brings these words to life. A family home for three brothers stacked in a vertical built space—three families with different personalities and aspirations—three generations trying to coexist in a singular built form.

#BEATTHEFIRE - WHAT YOU SPECIFY CAN DECIDE WHO SURVIVES
In moments of fire, there is no second chance. The materials you choose today determine whether a building protects lives tomorrow - or puts them at risk. In an age where speed of construction and visual appeal often overshadow safety, one critical truth must remain nonnegotiable: fire safety begins at the specification stage.
