Cirque House

At the heart of Gujranwala Town, New Delhi, Cirque House stands as a testament to the essence of a modern family – a diverse blend of personalities, eccentric choices, and a shared appreciation for the beauty of life's simple moments. The project, designed by The Melange Studio, unfolds as a story told through a design narrative. A three-generation nuclear family, while embracing distinct tastes and unorthodox perspectives, collectively seeks luxury in simplicity.

As one enters, a striking suspended beaded statement ceiling light, a whimsical touch, marks the beginning of this narrative. This entrance opens to a spacious living and dining area that is the heart of the house, inviting family members to congregate, interact, and cross paths, reinforcing their bonds. The living space, instead of adhering to a conventional layout, features a single-piece setting that defines the room. Monotone shades are harmonised with hints of antique brass, creating a sense of opulence. The wooden panelling, soothing zen blue colour tones, and abstract artworks create a feeling of intimacy and serenity within a minimalist framework.

The entire design scheme resonates with a consistent material palette that includes Panda white marble, walnut wood, and custom-made lighting. Notably, the client's desire to showcase their decor and treasured pieces led to the creation of a custom shelving system, seamlessly integrated alongside the television. In an artful twist, zig-zag folded metal shutters with concealed handles adorn the storage unit below the TV, redefining the role of storage as an artistic element.

In keeping with the family's individuality, each bedroom exhibits a distinct character while adhering to the repetitive material palette, ensuring a unified look and feel throughout the space. The minimalist modern kitchen and utility areas follow a functional approach, selecting materials that blend seamlessly with the overarching design philosophy.

Cirque House tells a compelling tale of a modern family, where luxury is discovered in the ordinary, and diverse personalities coexist harmoniously within a captivating interior landscape. It's a testament to the beauty of life's unique moments shared within the comfort of a well-designed home.
