Studio Rohini Bagla has masterfully crafted The Springfield House in Mumbai, embodying the client’s vision of a sophisticated dwelling that exudes class without ostentation. The entire house embraces a palette of understated English hues, fostering an atmosphere of tranquility and timeless charm. Soft, soothing tones were carefully selected to create a harmonious ambiance, while natural materials such as wood and stone take center stage, infusing the home with organic beauty. Exquisitely marbled flooring graces every corner, adding an element of opulence to the space.
The balcony, adorned with intriguing patterned tiles, provides a delightful touch of character and breathtaking views of the surrounding creek. This outdoor space has been transformed into a verdant oasis with the thoughtful incorporation of lush greenery, enhancing the connection to nature.
Within the interior, a neutral color scheme reigns, creating an understated elegance. While vibrant hues are used sparingly, captivating upholstery and intriguing accents introduce visual interest throughout. The striking entrance door, with its captivating veneer arrangement, welcomes guests with a visually stimulating pattern that sets the tone for the rest of the home.
Upon entering, the living room showcases its crowning jewel: a magnificent sideboard adjacent to the dining area. Resplendent in a stunning PU finish, this piece exemplifies meticulous craftsmanship and intricate detailing. Above the sofa, carefully curated paintings and a hand-embroidered masterpiece inject pops of color, creating a captivating visual contrast against the minimalist grey upholstery of the sofa.
The living room is anchored by a substantial stone-finished coffee table, harmonizing seamlessly with the other elements of the space. A neutral earthy rug serves as a unifying element, while touches of matte gold accent the furniture, beautifully complementing the wooden finishes. The sleek TV wall, adorned with vertical panels, features a TV unit with a fluted pattern that adds a touch of visual intrigue.
The dining area boasts a solid wood table with a unique vertical design element, injecting a personalized touch into the living space. Family portraits tastefully arranged behind the dining area wall evoke warmth and individuality, while a thoughtfully designed mandir showcases a clever mechanism that seamlessly conceals the space when not in use.
The doors throughout the house are architectural highlights in their own right, featuring exquisite molding and finished in a sophisticated shade of grey. The kitchen doors, featuring a striking combination of molding and fluted glass, add an elegant modernity to the culinary space.
Thanks to the favorable west-facing orientation of the house, an abundance of natural light floods the interiors, prompting the design team to opt for light colors with soothing undertones. This choice creates an illusion of spaciousness and enhances the overall brightness of the space.
In the master bedroom, a minimalist white wardrobe with long golden handles serves as an eye-catching accent. The sturdy wooden bed, adorned with cane elements, adds warmth and texture. A multifunctional unit serves as both a dresser and study table, epitomizing practicality and style. Above the headboard, captivating photo prints add a personal touch, completing the serene atmosphere.
The guest bedroom reflects a subtle touch of traditional Indian influences while maintaining understated elegance. A band created on the back wall, enclosed with molding, adds a hint of heritage. The solid wood bed enhances the room’s earthy ambiance, while carefully curated photo prints and paintings connect to the clients’ Himachal Pradesh background.
For the teenage bedroom, the design team eschewed conventional expectations, creating a captivating wooden back wall framed with paneling. The minimal and earthy aesthetic is complemented by shades of olive green, imbuing the space with tranquility and subtlety.
Attention to detail extends to the bathrooms, where the design team utilized similar materials in varying colors to establish a cohesive theme. The common bathroom exudes monochromatic charm with grey tones, complemented by a striking black metal sink and fluted tiles. The master bathroom showcases warm cream tones and wood elements, creating a soothing ambiance enhanced by subtle highlights of fluted tiles. The guest bathroom embraces beige tones, seamlessly blending with the Indian aspects curated in the guest bedroom.
