Design Essentia Magazine

Whimsical Wes is a 5400 sq.ft. cinematic and character rich residence designed by Kirti Dodeja in Siolim, Goa, India that blends Wes Anderson inspired symmetry with Art Nouveau elegance, using pastel palettes, bold detailing, and curated artefacts to create a deeply personal and playful home.

Whimsical Wes : Living Inside a Cinematic Dream

A cinematic yet poetic interior where colour, ornamentation, and symmetry come together to tell a deeply personal story.

Set amid the relaxed charm of Siolim, Goa, Whimsical Wes is a two storey residence that unfolds like a carefully composed film. Designed by Kirti Dodeja, the home draws inspiration from the theatrical precision of Wes Anderson while embracing the romantic fluidity of Art Nouveau. What initially began as an exploration of bold Pop Art aesthetics gradually evolved through meaningful conversations with the homeowners into something far more nuanced. The result is a cinematic yet poetic interior where colour, ornamentation, and symmetry come together to tell a deeply personal story.
