Power of Paint

It's possible to paint almost everything. Walls, doors, furniture, metal surfaces. An artist even painted his bird, but that's not advisable
Paint as a medium is just so amazing to transform anything in interiors. Some pics where paint looks good and well used. Take a look and i am sure your hands would itch to paint something too!



A client's home done with Asian paints wall fashions. Have actually not changed much of the existing interiors except a few furnishings, just repainted the walls.



One of the most prestigious client home in Mumbai. Great experience at this site, greater satisfaction to see it done well.



Another client bedroom just finished in bands. Loved them! Suggested them for blue bands with white furniture and windows.


Lovely texture on one wall and notice the false ceiling and fan painted in metallic copper colour to match up.


Painted my hammock in the garden. Couldn't spare that either;)


This is a 'tea kadai' (kadai meaning shop in tamil) in chennai. Visited this shop some months back.
Loved the mood in there.Free hand artist painting is so beautiful and a great expression of the city itself.
Overall colours used were a rouge red with green doors and chairs.

And there goes another legacy of paint...

Paint in Style

The world of colours and paints are just amazing. They can do so much to a home. Here are some of my favorite ways of using colour.

A blue-green feature wall with yellow flowers gives so much life to this space.

One of the best ways to camouflage a crowded rack- Splash good dose of colour around. This shelf might have looked shabby minus the colour.

Use colour as a medium to separate spaces- like here window area separated from the living room, yet very much a part of it.


Painting in bands like this gives good character to this entire room.


The idea of painting circles around hooks is so cool!


Stripes are never out of trend and you can adjust the widths of stripes in different colours and make it your own design.

Simple Wall Ideas

Literally we played with colour! After a lot of brainstorming starting with bands..heartbeats..origami lines..finally we stuck to the idea of bands. And do we love this or what! Its come out absolutely cool. Adding more colour to our already colourful workplace. Yes, thats where I work :)
There is some excitement about painting yourself even if its just a small design. This pattern which i recently painted at my guy's home was so much fun i can't begin to express! From getting the lines straight, to smudging little bit of paint out (that was ouch for me!) but getting it corrected in panicky ways, to getting messy with paints over each other (its washable..no need to get hyper actually!). Its a great experience :)
My advice to all those enthusiastic guys who want to make their home look beautiful without shelling out too much.. Go Ahead and DIY (do it yourself). You will love it!



If walls could speak this is how it would be! Found this idea to be really cool... my favorite quotes on the wall every day i wake up...just in case i forget them!
