## About Project Arah: An Avant-Garde Mumbai Home

We often use glass blocks, a material many associate with 1980s architecture, to solve lighting problems in dark corridors. For Project Arah, we integrated them to diffuse natural light between the living room and the multipurpose area, creating an ethereal glow without sacrificing privacy. This was not just a stylistic decision, it was a functional solution that changed the entire flow of the home.

This 2130 sq. ft. home was a study in creative freedom. When we started, the layout featured long walls and small windows that made the interiors feel dim. Instead of hiding these constraints, we used them to define the space. We replaced standard partition walls with glass blocks to draw light into the core of the apartment.

The material palette is intentionally bold. We used green Indian marble as the anchor for the living and dining areas, grounding the design in natural, rich textures. To maintain the flow, we matched the lettering of the Jain mantra on the blue accent wall to the wall tone itself, allowing the detail to be powerful yet quiet.

Every element, from the 16-foot sofa to the custom-made console, was designed to fit the specific constraints of the site. We focused on keeping the floor plan open, allowing the family to host comfortably. This is how we approach every project: responding to the architecture first, and then layering in the details that make a house feel like a home. Our work focuses on clear, honest design that balances functionality with strong aesthetic choices.

## About Realm Studiio

We are Minal and Aadesh. In our studio, we believe design is about the messy middle—the dust, the measurements, and the craftspeople—rather than just the final photo. We work directly on-site to turn your home into a space that truly feels like yours, not just another project.
