Equal parts modern and Mediterranean, this home in Kolkata is so much more than the sum of its parts

- POOJA BIHANI

Easy, Breezy and Beautiful

Designing your own home is a unique and memorable experience, primarily due to the distinct dual perspective of being the client as well as the designer. Mezze Home reflects my vision for my home with the use of tactile and natural finishes with a Mediterranean theme while still being modern and understated.

Textured walls with open-pore wooden finishes (inspired by the mud-filled walls of Greece) add to the grounded feel of the home. This was done as a mock-up three to four times before it finally fit the space. The living room has a static Jhula that was built on-site using two large blocks of oakwood. The blue leather couch is one of the rare high-end finishes used in the home.
