20 Jan This 25 South Residence in Prabhadevi Boasts of High Ceilings and Breathes Easy | Design Vault
One who is full of life (a.k.a. One of many names of Lord Vishnu) – a name lovingly bestowed upon their new abode by the Vermas … Nestled in a stunning 57 storey tower, this 25 South residence in Prabhadevi boasts of high ceilings and breathes easy with its expansive glass windows and awe-inspiring views of the Arabian sea! We designed the space for a family of four, to be modern and functional with plenty of room for art collected over the years, so much so that every wall is a conversation starter.
The first thing you notice while entering is the luminosity & grandness of the foyer. It feels like a heritage hotel lobby! Across a west-facing window, sits a ‘Ultramarine blue’ console – forming a base for a gorgeous Madhubani Art work- a literal heirloom preserved by the client over decades!

A geometric pattern flooring created with 3 toned marble highlights the entrance – almost like a red carpet welcome for its guests ! The ceiling here curves gently on the edges and is rendered in a metallic texture paint, while a smokey gray crystal chandelier from Kapoor Lights creates a sense of luxury right from the get go! A similar approach continues on to the corridor leading to the delicately nested Mandir area. Art & intricate details set the stage for every element of this home, as evidenced in the mandir, where layers of Vietnamese white marble with gold inlay, create a soft halo around the Deity’s Idol. The background walls are embellished with moulding and texture paint while the mandir console has mother of pearl inlay – carefully handcrafted by artisans.

A subtle geometry combines the formality of straight lines with intermittent soft curves. Swathing the walls & ceiling in an ash gray atop the calm white marble floors, helps to soften the overall ambience while being rich in detail. Vertical lines on various surfaces accentuate the height of the spaces which is noticeable in the delicate-almost fabric like curved panelling overarching this naturally lit living room. The rugs here are a Carpet Couture design.

An east-oriented window of the dining steeps the space in sunlight, turning it into a lightbox during the day. A beautiful Saron colin eight seater never fails to live up to a hearty meal – be it for a quick bite ,drinks with friends or an elaborate dinner. This 7-foot dining table is complemented by customized- framed colour rendition of ‘the plate project ‘ wall decor.

The bar unit is reminiscent of ‘cabinet of curiosities’. A metal mesh and sandwiched glass intricately fused to create its magnificent shutters showcasing how a whiff of traditions interacts with a decidedly modern air of the home. Fluted walnut along the ceiling periphery with metal pendants from The White Teak company completes this space. A neat buffet counter in walnut sits adjacent to the Bar -an ideal worktop to mix drinks.

The kitchen radiates modern aesthetics, revolving around a captivating light oak wood coffee bar- carved out especially to ‘Fix a quick coffee on the go’. Adjacent to this entry stands a tall pantry – a ‘must have’ for the homeowners who are spirited hosts and entertain almost every other day. A touch of burgundy injects a burst of vibrancy into the space with geometric floor tile pattern and pristine white countertops !
