It speaks quietly Tropical-'The Asian Tropical Style'

[Red plumeria and river pebbles on a mother of pearl shell dish
- refined simplicity of tropical living and my humble abode]


A home can be a sensual delight
with simple or intriguing arrangements of
natural materials.


Free flowing space,
airy and light open plan residence,
organic space which is in tune with mother nature
evokes the 'Asian Tropical Style'

Thai raw silk cushion cover 

and silk throw from Cambodia
beautifully compliments 
the Vietnamese wooden fisherman.

So,
Go tropical...
Go natural...
Go green...
it is artfully unexpected :)

A study corner with natural flair...

framed tribal art
and wooden 'snake boat race' figure from Kerala (India),
sits happily with green succulent 
potted in a clay planter.

Touch of wood, clay, bamboo, 
coconut twigs or sea shells
blended with 
raw silk, fresh orchids and gorgeous plants
beautifully paints the composed and stylish picture of 
Asian Tropical Decor.

 Asian Tropical Style is casually elegant,
relaxed and free flowing,
comfortable and crisp,
whimsical yet functional...
 and just perfect for today's busy life.

What do you say...?..:)

P.S. : I am extremely sorry for the infrequent activity on this little blog for the last couple of months. The 'off-line life' is becoming increasingly demanding and juggling between different role(s) is tough sometime. I know my beautiful readers are truly understanding. I'm going to answer all your e-mails ASAP. 
Thanks again for your unconditional love, support and  time.

Comfort Zone

                                                                       

                                                                                   via

Comfort often starts from a cozy nook
the turquoise wall and the gorgeous setting
completes the tone of this room...
here 'more' is more.

A comfy bedroom
wrapped in warm colours

via

an immediate sense of warmth and comfort
- a feeling that's obvious
from an expert blend of colours, texture and materials.

Openness to innovation...Live your style!

splashes of creativity

turquoise, pink and gold hues

panorama of surrounding beauty

and relaxing living...

Welcoming suzani 

to complete the tone of these rooms

Colours and elegance

depth and warmth...

 We can use our own space 

as a constantly evolving experimental canvas
to live our style...

Yes, openness to innovation

is important to add timelessness to our home.

 Hello to a lovely new week :)

Living: Global-Boho-Chic

"There is no formula for glamour. It combines shimmer and charisma. It's elusive but you know it when you see it."

- Mary McDonald, Mary McDonald Interiors

So true!

This gorgeous turquoise wall 
and the effortless casual style 
evokes a lot...isn't it ?

I just can't take my eyes off from 
these calm, grown up rooms below.

  Totally loving these 
vibrant colours, 
bold patterns

and beautiful fabrics,

boho at it's best.

Those pillows , cushions, suzani and Asian artifacts
 blends so well with those pictures on the wall.
Here, east meets west. 

This image reminds me of my homeland, India.
The gorgeous 'jhula' and the chair
 are must for
gapshap (chitchat ) with endless cups of chai (tea) :)

Need less...and...smile often :)

A good life 

is when you

do more,

need less, 

assume nothing,

smile often,

dream big,

laugh a lot

and realize how blessed you are

        -Unknown

So true!

In design and styling also I feel happy when I 'need less'.

The effortless and relaxing style is truly inviting for me.

What is your thought...would love to know.

Stop and smell the roses...:)

to set aside a little time, 

to take a pause,

to relax,

to renew,

to reflect.

Home is where the 'heart' is

What makes your home special to you ?

My answer is : The people in it, my family and friends-:)

Home should be a refreshing and peaceful place

 to come back at the end of a long day.

A happy home means happy people,

not just a bulk of expensive furniture and strict design rules.

Agree or disagree  ??

Have a beautiful weekend folks with your loved ones-:)
