Plavi Design Studio leans on Nordic design sensibilities to realise a family’s desire for a snug haven.

‘Less is More’ was the grounding maxim for the design of this north Bengaluru apartment. This is articulated through modern geometry, natural materiality and a consistent colour palette infused with refreshing indoor greenery. More crucially, the home — aptly called Scandinavian Love — had to embody spirited freedom, and show resilience to the changing needs and aspirations of its occupants. “At Scandinavian Love, our endeavours were shaped by the clients’ vision from the get-go. The residence in its entirety had to feel like a home, a refuge that allowed them to untether from the humdrum of the urban city. One that strikes a balance amidst sensorial and feel-good design while honing the Scandinavian vocabulary holistically,” states interior designer Plavita Borah of Plavi Design Studio.
