About the project

A congruence of neo-classical and traditional elements drapes this sumptuous penthouse residence in Gurgaon, New Delhi, India for a family of four.  This 6500 Sqft penthouse residence aims to offer an evocative appeal layered in contemporary flair with subtle opulence. The space comprises of living room, bar area, study and open terrace in addition to bedrooms, all of which are spatially arranged across two levels of this residence. The brief was crisp; a modern dwelling with hints of traditional elements that aligns with the design sensibilities of the homeowners.

Entrance Foyer

A combination of green, white and grey Bulgari stone with black Marquina marble fits the flooring of the foyer in a circular pattern. The double-height of the foyer accentuates the dramatic effect upon entry which is further glistened by a bespoke chandelier. Entering the lobby, the house divides into distinct nodes leading to separate spaces such as the living room, dining space and bar area with a guest bedroom on the side. The walls of the living area are coated in nudes with sleek mouldings—a modern interpretation of classical design. 

The design narrative builds upon an experience that is regal, and opulent, yet optimises in strategic spatial planning that makes this abode completely utilitarian, providing seamless circulation throughout the space. The residence’s design intent has been enhanced by bespoke decorative lighting which caters to the dynamics of the space, lending it an aura of warmth. Downlights were incorporated to generate ambient lighting, whereas statement pieces like crystal chandeliers were installed in formal places to create a rich atmosphere, accentuating the height of the space. It is critical to have a space that evenly diffuses and distributes light while also instilling a touch of elegance, in tune with the synergy of the space.
