Classic Meets Modern at This Renovated Alipore Residence by A Square Designs

Classic elegance meets modern flair in this stunning Alipore residence, masterfully renovated by A Square Designs by Ajay Arya. This duplex harmoniously blends vintage furniture with contemporary accents, crafting a radiant sanctuary brimming with timeless allure. Ajay Arya elaborates on the intricacies of this home at SURFACES REPORTER (SR). Take a closer look:

Spread across 3000 sq ft, this home is a classic showcase of the owners' aesthetic, seamlessly executed by A Square Designs. Featuring refurbished colonial furniture and family heirlooms, the house brims with decorative art, artifacts, sculptures, and showpieces.

Elegant Italian Marble Flooring

Grey Italian marble flooring complements the house, absorbing bright colors without overshadowing intricate carpets and furniture acquired during the owners' journeys to Italy, enhancing the overall ambiance.

Upper Floor Layout

The upper floor includes the formal drawing room, dining room, powder bedroom, and master bedroom unit. The living room connects seamlessly to the staircase atrium adorned with cascading money plants, blending indoor and outdoor spaces.

A classic European cast iron staircase leads to the living and dining areas.

Handcrafted Elegance in the Living and Dining Areas"

The living and dining rooms serve as the home's design centerpiece. Featuring meticulously carved wooden partitions, engraved glass screens, bespoke cupboards, hand-carved chairs, and an array of art pieces, they exude artisanal charm and whimsical drama.

The space is filled with statement-making elements, including wooden cabinets in the living and dining rooms showcasing curios, crystals, and family collectibles. An intricately hand-carved cabinet in the living room holds Swarovski crystals, reflecting Victorian elegance, while a large dining room cabinet stores the family’s crockery. The living room also features an antique grandfather clock and stunning marble and alabaster statues.

The art deco elements in the living and dining rooms steal the spotlight, featuring textile artwork above a sumptuous sofa, an antique Pichwai painting from Ochre at Home, and paintings by Sameer Sarkar. Timeless lighting pieces, including intricately carved hanging lights and wall brackets sourced from Lalique and Daum, illuminate the house with elegance.

Charming Powder Room

One of the most enchanting spots in this house is the powder room, adorned with a captivating rainforest wall covering from ARTE and complemented by a beautifully carved mirror.

Master Bedroom

The master bedroom, adorned in light tones, exudes cheerfulness with its blend of wood and wicker furniture.

A serene backdrop of dreamy drapery and beautiful wallpaper behind the bed enhances the space with Zen-like calmness. A spacious bathroom and oversized walk-in closet complete this bedroom sanctuary
