Bombay-based design studio MuseLAB has recently projected a mammoth abode in the city of Kolhapur, India.

Located in Kolhapur, an inland city in the Western State of Maharashtra, the house is a jewel box of everything that makes one’s heart smile. This colossal residence is a museum of experiences, moments, and epiphanies that take one on an immersive journey replete with soaring sculptures, cascading carpets, hidden jharokhas, and candy-esque bridges.

"When we first visited the site, we were in awe of the volume. A 15.000 sq ft home with a height of 30 ft in the living room and about 45 ft in the central atrium for a family of five, was both overwhelming and spellbinding."



The designers have layered the living area with fluid shapes that accentuate movement not only along the length and width but also along the 35 ft height of the room. At the far end of the collection of curiosities is the 28 ft tall totem lamp by Harshita Jhamtani, which obviously makes an impressive statement. 



A beautiful sculpture by Sameer Tawde sits at the foot of the staircase that has flower pressed panels by Rooshad Shroff on the handrails. While it may seem like there is a lot going on, nothing is forced. Each detail has been exquisitely and lovingly added, and every piece thoughtfully placed.
