As you enter the house you feel like you are entering an urban jungle, you are greeted by the the Draco-Dracaena Draco that has its own presence in the living room. The pony tail palm - Beauharnais recurvata gives the space and exotic feel, the devil's ivy- Epipremnum aureum casually drops off the top ledge beautifully complimenting the travertine on the back. These plants backed by rugged travertine; stone sculpture give the space a very enchanted feel.

This becomes a space to ponder and look out. This travertine contrasts with the teak. The materiality of these two elements is the highlight of the house. We can see the material consistency of this combination flowing even in the bedroom.

The bold prints of these furniture pieces have been curated to add an element of quirk and unexpected in the house. It comes off as a pleasant contrast to the very understated and rustic shell.

The furniture and decor in the space has its own character and attitude. The bold prints of the chair, rugs, bench, cushions accentuate the shell even more. In contrast to that, the sofas are kept muted and understated.The bold prints of these furniture pieces have been curated to add an element of quirk and unexpected in the house.

A large part of the process of designing the apartment was about redefining the relation of the interior spaces with the outdoors. To create spaces and environments that appreciate the outdoors. The planning of Urban grove is free flowing and open in nature, such that the spaces flow living to dining to the kitchen without any walls or partitions giving it a seamless feel.
