In projects like 'Gulmohar', we used a custom crockery unit to create a subtle boundary between the dining table and the lounge, allowing the space to feel open while still keeping the dining area intimate. It is about balancing your need for a social host's space with the comfort of a private home, using materials like teak veneer and rattan to keep the tone warm. Our design approach for social spaces focuses on three pillars: connectivity, light, and comfort. We believe your living room should adapt to you, whether it is a quiet morning reading session in a nook or hosting a large gathering. ### The Indo-Modern Aesthetic We often weave traditional elements into modern layouts. This might be a classic wooden swing in a contemporary living room, as seen in our 'Vasudhalayah' project, or the use of arches to soften rigid architectural lines. These features bring a sense of nostalgia and homeliness to new apartment builds. ### Material Choices For social zones, texture is everything. We gravitate towards natural teak wood, rattan inserts for furniture, and muted, earthy paint palettes. These materials age gracefully and add depth to the room. We also look for ways to introduce features that catch the eye, such as ceiling rafters or statement wall paneling, which help define these large areas without needing to add extra walls. ### Functional Zoning The challenge in many modern Bengaluru apartments is a lack of clear definition between the entrance, living, and dining zones. We solve this through: * **Furniture Placement:** Using consoles or back-to-back seating to create invisible walls. * **Lighting:** Layering cove lighting with statement fixtures above the dining table to anchor the space. * **Custom Storage:** Designing crockery units that are as aesthetic as they are functional, often using fluted glass to add visual interest. Whether you are starting with a blank canvas or looking to renovate, we work with you for 6-7 months to ensure every corner—from the layout of the TV unit to the placement of your dining chair—feels intentional and personal. ## About Simplécede We’re the team at Simplécede, and we believe your home’s social spaces should be as welcoming as they are functional. We pour our energy into the details, like the grain of the teak wood or the curve of an arch, because we know these are the spots where you will spend your best moments.
