INTERIOR Animated Interiors A RESIDENCE AT MANBHAWAN TEXT : Shweta Shakya photos: Pradip Ratna Tuladhar T he interior design picture in Nepal has drastically changed over the past few years with development of understanding the experience of a building. The image of our dream house has changed synchronously. This house at Manbhawan is an embodiment of a modern day dream house which portrays the fullness of its inhabitant’s personality and philosophy. Rashmi Chitrakar, Absolute Interiors, understood the narrative weaves of owner’s needs. Taking a minimalistic approach with a tinge of tradition, a design process was initiated that suits the needs and lifestyle of the family. The vibrant social life of the homeowners unfolds a capacious and free flowing living area. Tailored living rooms were split into formal and more informal spaces emphasizing a spatial journey by a progression of the floor surface selection like marble, parquet to soft carpeting. The ceiling design commands every space balancing with the furniture and the textures. Working with a reduced palette of materials and colors has been the part of the process of creating timeless design while embracing the subtleness of the family. Lighting is detailed to heighten the experience of the spaces. Recessed lights have not been used but the reflected light of the chandeliers gives it a floating effect. All the possibilities were taken into account including chandeliers, LED lighting, spot lights, pendant lamps, and sconces have been used smartly balancing between ambiance and function. 50 / SPACES SEPTEMBER 2017
