For a Californian couple with two adult boys, Hawaii had always served as an escape. “We visited the islands dozens of times when our children grew up, and the warmth of people, care, healing and peace and peace,” says the woman. “We have reached a point where we had the feeling of growing roots here.” There was nothing unusual in the place they had ultimately selected: the landscape was barren, but for a grove of Kiawe trees and the weak foundations of a past building. But for the couple it felt like a sign to stay.
The entry Lanai honors the principles of Vastu Shastra through its central placement and represents the Indian legacy of the owners. The sun falls in slants over the seating area, which includes a custom -made padded bank, hand -woven lounge chairs and an Asturia's swing chair by Carlos Motta for Espasso. With slatted grills for walls and doors, an open -air input and a Minka Aire Roto XL ceiling fan for warmer evenings, the room serves as a refuge for both collecting and for the withdrawal. The pillow covers are Élitis, John Robshaw, Silkworks and Bindi Gold Designs.

A window with double height

Secondary houses offer the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life – calm, calm retreat options that are supposed to facilitate the mind and relieve the soul. This villa in Pune is an excellent example, a 4,000 square meter sanctuary for a five-person family-a young couple and her three children. Sahiba Madan from the INSUSTUS Design Studio took on the task of designing this house, which promotes the quality of family time and at the same time offered private retreats for individual moments of loneliness.
The villa in Pune extends over three floors, with common rooms on the floor and private bedrooms and areas on the upper floors. The ground floor has an input with a vaulted ceiling that seamlessly connects different areas of the house. On the left, an expansive living room with double heights is supplemented by a cozy reader axis that is embedded at the window. The Mini library is equipped with a ladder by two highly towering bookshelves to access the upper shelves, while a day bed in the middle offers a comfortable place to relax and relax.
