An ultra-luxurious vacation home on a massive scale, spanned vertically on a linear site, this is one home where anything and everything under the sun was an inspiration with limitless possibilities to explore in terms of ideas. Concepts are derived from Nature mainly, with inspirations ranging from molten lava, igneous rockscapes, snow-capped mountain peaks, the mighty sequoia trees, mist-laden woodland mornings and the under-water aquatic world. Some common spaces are also derived from ethnic roots, translating golden treasure chests, South Indian vernacular palaces and mehendi patterns into spatial art. And then there are the whimsical interpretations for the younger generation, creating interiors from cotton candy and chocolates, foam art in cappuccino and latte, the beloved sport of soccer and lo and behold, the neo-era Disney’s timeless classic movie, Tangled. A majestic and magnificent home away from home, a resplendently powerful edifice as a statement icon in town – a testament to the lofty position in life reached by the client, as a symbolic memoir in his home-town to serve as an inspiration for the natives.
