floating & cantilevered furniture design
we shape space by removing the visual weight of the ground. floating forms, cantilevered volumes, and integrated lighting that defines the architecture itself.
a minimalist floating bed frame with integrated headboard and subtle under-lighting, creating a serene and spacious atmosphere… the attached cantilevered nightstand continues the clean, architectural lines.
a cantilevered wooden storage console floating on a corridor wall… this piece of integrated architectural cabinetry provides storage while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic under a long skylight.
a custom-designed indoor swing, suspended from the ceiling in a double-height family room… the solid wood base and clean lines make it a functional yet sculptural seating element.
About Floating & Cantilevered Forms
achieving a true floating effect requires precise structural engineering, not just visual aesthetics. for our cantilevered beds and storage consoles, we use heavy-duty mild steel (ms) internal frameworks that are securely anchored into the masonry or concealed within the wall. this ensures the piece supports significant weight without the need for visible legs, maintaining the zero-gravity look you see in our work.
architecture and furniture should be one thought. when we approach a residential space, we do not look for off-the-shelf solutions. our process starts with hand-sketches and blueprints, mapping out how the furniture interacts with light, circulation, and the room's volume.
whether it is a king bed in a primary bedroom or a floating media unit in a corridor, the goal is to reduce visual clutter. we use high-grade materials like italian marble, ebony veneers, and translucent onyx, which allow us to manipulate light and texture. our experience since 1995 in bengaluru has taught us that the result depends on the details. it is about the quality of the led profiles, the matte polish on the veneers, and the stability of the hidden hardware. if you are looking for custom-built, architectural furniture that feels like it grew out of the walls, we can work with you to integrate these elements into your home.
