The interior design for this 1000 sqft 3BHK apartment in the eastern suburbs of Thane was completed within a tight time frame of five months, with 1.5 months dedicated to design and 4 months to on-site work. The project was an exciting opportunity to transform a cold shell into a warm, inviting home for a three-generation family seeking an upgraded lifestyle. Transitioning from a compact 400 sqft 1BHK, the clients were eager to create a space that not only accommodated their growing family but also provided a more comfortable and contemporary living experience.
Given that the builder provided the apartment as a cold shell, with floors left untouched and rooms and bathrooms in their original state, the design focus was placed on finishes, lighting, and the customization of key elements like the kitchen and furniture. The layout was adjusted to maximize space, ensuring that the flow between rooms felt seamless while providing the functionality needed for the family’s lifestyle.
The design was carefully tailored to the needs of a multi-generational family. The open-plan living and dining areas were optimized for family gatherings, while bedrooms were designed to offer privacy and relaxation. Storage solutions were built into key areas to keep the apartment clutter-free and functional for everyday life.
Despite the challenges of working with a cold shell and the tight timeline, the result is a beautifully designed, cohesive home that caters to the family’s evolving needs. The space was transformed into a modern, comfortable, and stylish apartment that offers a perfect balance of functionality, aesthetics, and warmth. The project is a testament to efficient design execution, with every detail considered to support the family’s lifestyle while staying within budget and time constraints.
