The tiny passage leading into the rooms is lined with storage cabinets
that blend effortlessly into the walls. In the master bedroom, a low lying
box bed with pullout drawers, concealed shelves in the wall behind the
door and a hidden shelves outside the bathroom store the essentials.
Leaving almirah tops bereft of boxed cabinets. Frosted glass with a
mounted mirror segregates the bathroom. An extension of the black and
white colour scheme, this section has a louvered window to bring in the
sunshine and houses a spacious loft that shares a dual opening with the
passage beyond.
A sliding door separates the children's bedroom from theirs. "As it stays
open most of the time, there is effective cross ventilation throughout the
house," says Sonal. With the immediate closet in this room of the same
veneer as the main bedroom, the second bedroom comes across as a visual
extension of a single united space. Accomodated at the other end of this
room is a generous study table built into the wall and a pull-out couch
cum bed. Camouflaged shelves in the wall revealed by the sliding door hold
ample books.
Sensible and spacious. That's how Sonal and Rahul conceived their home --
"A simple white shell where our kids bring in the colour."
