This story isn't just about looks; it's about the people who live there and their feelings. Interior design is about creating a story that connects the people in that space with the world around them. It's all about making a place feel like home, where design and emotions converge in one place.
When Jacob Mathews and his wife Sneha Jacob came back to a new resurgent India after having lived abroad for years, they had no idea what they would do professionally. With nearly six decades of life behind them, both of them decided to follow their hobbies. That’s when the duo decided to renovate their 35-year-old home.
First and foremost, they identified the areas they would like to change to bring elegance and aesthetics. Once they achieved that clarity, they started researching through the net and exhibitions and understood the options available to them. “To our surprise, the budget we planned was well below what we could spend to create our dream home,” laughs Jacob. Hence, they redefined their budgets and expanded the horizon for the scope of their envisioned project. To give shape to their aspirations, they took help from some freelancers to draft their dreams into 2D and 3D drawings. It was at this juncture that both decided to take charge of executing the project themselves, recognising that doing so would provide them with invaluable insights into the transformation of their beloved abode.
“What we initially thought to be just a mere ‘couple of months’ of work turned out to be a 13-month journey of tireless effort and creativity. The house we started with, turned out to be a place that reflected our personalities. We had successfully converted our dream into a reality,” recalls Sneha Jacob.
