Aqua Homes brings coastal calm to urban Bengaluru
ACE Update Design Sense
|August 2025
"Thoughtful without being heavy-handed, Aqua Homes is a home with a sense of quiet that doesn't announce itself, but settles in over time. From a checkered-tile foyer to a mural-lined dining room, every space echoes calm, warmth, and understated sophistication." - Weespaces.

Aqua Homes by Vinithra Amarnathan of Weespaces, tucked away in Bengaluru’s lush Yemlur region, emits a calm, carefree appeal. The home was designed as a haven that reflected the homeowner's love for the seaside and provided a sense of calm after their hectic professional lives. The design philosophy avoids stereotypes while attracting inspiration from coastal features. The entire space is highlighted by a peachy colour theme of soft pastel blues, sandy beiges, and soft greens, which gives the home a relaxed and natural rhythm. Natural materials like rattan, oakwood, burl wood, and cane perfectly blend with them.
