SALADS AND COCKTAILS!
It’s bloom time, folks! Literally. Floral prints are strewing their fragrance everywhere, from the ramp to your rooms. It is evident on wall papers, upholstery, curtains and accessories worldwide this season and has found its way to our shores as well. Our Prints’ Special taps how big, bright and beautiful, floral motifs have a way of lending cheer and positivity to the interiors of any space. And similar patterned accessories just up the glam quotient...While on the glamour factor, the understated charm of designer Bubble Batra’s redesigned parental home reaffirms my faith in family bonds and the power of a subtle palette contrasted with bold strokes of leather. With wood and mosaic tiles lending a warm vibe, the interiors of this seven-bedroom home smartly juxtapose opulence with a rough and masculine ambience, specially in the living area. As Vanita Arora discovered, it is a home designed with love and passion that seamlessly blends individual tastes into a homogeneous whole...Passion seems to be the buzzword, and that’s amply evident in upcoming artist and calligrapher Payal Bhattacharya’s canvases, which are bursting with creativity and are a singular combination of calligraphy and contemporary art. The 26-year-old blithe spirit has ingeniously transformed her love for the written word into a profession that satisfies her creative urges and results in canvases which are style statements in their own right. From prints to calligraphy, you have a lot to choose from to put your summer style quotient on an upward swing this season!
Cheers!
