Different shades of residential interiors| A sustainably forward luxury flagship | Tools for Green Design| and more

Dear Reader,

There are so many interior styles, and there are as many, if not more aspirants and aspirations. This issue brings you a wee peep into this premise. From renovating a split level space in an old traditional country house in Canada, to a contemporary home caressed by natural light and optimised ventilation in South Bengaluru, India, one's lifestyle choices play prime determinants of one's interior design.

Our cover story – a high-end apartment by Moriq Architects in Hyderabad is an unusual take on home design as it follows a raw design vocabulary as its mainstay. Devoid of pops of colour that are commonly seen everywhere, this rather uncommon industrial grunge aesthetic is heartwarmingly appealing and timeless, and a complete turnaround from usual residential interiors. Must-read!

Besides the three differently designed homes, Canada gets its largest luxury mall with over 99 luxury lifestyle goods stores. The Holt Renfrew Ogilvy flagship stands beautifully renovated.

Enjoy the issue.

Warm regards,
Savitha Hira
