Staying at home is just like indulging in a deep cleanse of the body, mind, and five senses. Savor the experience in the sweet dawn and morning hours.

Design concept
The beauty of life can be abstract association, but it can also be real-life experiences. Apart from the traditional perception of space, is there any other way to enjoy living in a space luxuriously? For this project, the idea from Guru Interior Design originated with the person (whose experiences have value) as the sole leader of the design space. The design reflects consideration for one’s personal experiences from the spiritual, cultural, and sensory perspectives—envisioning a new and irreplaceable kind of energy. There is a continuous flow of energy between humans, space, and nature that propels us to a novel experience of luxury.

Chapter 1: Transformation
This site is in a single-story residential building in a premium location. The original layout of the apartment is outdated. Guru’s design expert starts the transformation by refurbishing the basic engineering infrastructure and rearranging the layout to restore the site back to a clean and basic state.

Chapter 2: Introducing Green Elements
First, self-sustained plantation walls have been boldly introduced near the structural column between the windows in the living room. The combination of a patented self-sustained drip irrigation system and lighting provide an active flow of oxygen and drive photosynthesis inside the flat at all times. Two suitably sized mirror boxes have been installed at the top of the two vertical plantation walls to reflect the full view of the indoor garden. A view of this greenery helps relieve the stress of a hectic life. In addition, a plantation wall has also been introduced in the balcony of the living room. When the curtain is opened, the plants in the outdoor area and the lush greenery on the ceiling form continuous layers of green from front to back, as if there is an autonomous greenery cycle that breaks the visible boundaries of the structure.

Chapter 3: An Interior Bathed in Sunlight
Lighting suggests an intangible and magical lightness; it also conveys feelings of purity and cleanliness. It is the best background for the living space. With light, all colors, objects, and shades become prominent. After the renovation, a huge and continuous L-shaped window was introduced to the common area. The presence of only natural lighting creates beauty and a human-like expressiveness to the living space. The team of experts deliberately included fewer decorative elements on the ceilings, walls, and window frames so that the feeling of space in this flat would come from the occupants’ five senses. Minimal use of artificial materials ensures no interference with the design aims; the design approach highlights the simple and natural environment. Only with the purest light can the intriguing daily sensations in life be revealed.

Chapter 4: Back to Zero
Back to zero—in this living space, you can revert to basics. After the hustle and bustle of daily life, you can enjoy simplicity, tranquility, and serenity. The design is uncomplicated yet profound. A large gray surface is used throughout the common area. With the playful use of blocks, a three-dimensional continuous image is produced, which gives the common area a sense of flow. The use of modern Italian furniture in low saturation colors gives the impression of more space. These various features present an effortless design for the occupants. The main wall in the living room, the back end of the reading area, and the display wall at the end of the dining room form the core of the entertaining area. Apart from making good use of non-invasive materials such as wood and stone to achieve the back-to-basics visual effect, a variety of cutting edge modern technologies have also been applied to allow the occupants to enjoy the high-quality details. This apartment is a vivid example of a neat design arrangement suited to the regular routine of life and the human personality. Endless shades of light and greenery create a customized and delightful design story.
