STATE OF PLAY

Nikita Jain of Indihaus Design crafts a purist's home that delightfully bends the rules

For principal designer Nikita Jain of Indihaus Design, designing Apartment 94 for a young couple in Gurgaon was something of a dream project. “I love to create clean, minimal spaces balanced with bolder elements,” she tells us, which is just what her clients leaned towards too. “The home, in fact, takes its inhabitants as its muse, distilling the young couple’s effervescent yet grounded persona into the residence’s DNA.”
