The Avani Residence: Heritage and Modernity in Bangalore
Designed on a compact 30x45 foot plot in Nagarbhavi, this home is a masterclass in light, texture, and open-plan living. We balanced traditional architectural roots with a clean, contemporary layout to create a residence that feels both airy and deeply personal.
The entrance of the Avani Residence sets a welcoming tone with its spacious, well-lit design. We used a neutral color palette, calming textures like Jaisalmer stone, and a custom metal gate to merge heritage with modernity.
The living room features a stunning custom-carved wall panel with gold accents, creating a sophisticated backdrop for the plush, channel-tufted sofa. This space exemplifies our approach of blending luxurious textures with modern design.

An overhead view of the living area highlights the layering of colors and textures. The abstract rug grounds the space, while the custom sofa and marble coffee table add layers of comfort and luxury.
This living room's double-height ceiling and large windows create a grand, airy atmosphere. The video shows how natural light interacts with the carved stone backdrop and warm veneer, creating a dynamic and inviting environment.
The sun-kissed living room seamlessly incorporates the pooja room into its decor. This integration creates a harmonious flow, setting a warm and spiritual tone for the entire open-plan space.
The dining area is the heart of the home, enveloped in soft, clay-textured paneling on the walls and ceiling. A sculptural chandelier and plush velvet chairs create a space that is inviting, luxurious, and minimal.
About this collection
Notice how the double-height living area uses natural light not just for illumination, but to define the volume of the space. We achieved this flow by integrating the pooja room and dining area into an open layout, allowing the custom stone carvings to catch the shifting light throughout the day—a detail that fundamentally changes how the home feels from morning to evening.
Designing for a 30x45 Plot
Creating a sense of spaciousness within a 30x45 foot footprint requires a precise approach to architecture. At the Avani Residence in Nagarbhavi, our goal was to maximize the sense of volume without compromising on privacy or the desired 'luxury villa' feel. By employing a double-height ceiling and a strategic placement of windows, we ensured that every corner of the home remains bathed in sunlight, effectively blurring the lines between the interior and the outdoors.
The Material Palette
We believe that a home’s soul is found in its materials. For this project, we curated a palette centered on warmth and tactility. The use of Jaisalmer stone, rich veneers, and soft clay-textured wall paneling creates an environment that is sophisticated yet grounded. The hero element—a custom-carved stone panel—serves as the anchor for the living room, bridging the gap between traditional craftsmanship and modern minimalism.
Harmonizing Utility and Aesthetics
Every functional element, from the kitchen cabinetry to the concealed powder room doors, was designed to vanish into the architecture. By aligning these features with the overall design language, we ensured that the home remains clutter-free while maintaining high utility. The master bedroom continues this narrative, using a soft pastel palette and delicate floral accents to create a tranquil sanctuary. Whether you are looking for architectural design in Bangalore or complete interior fit-outs, our process remains the same: we start with your vision and manage every detail from the empty site to the final cushion.
