Some of the Warm Bright Indian Homes

Anything that instantly brings brightness on my face is a beautiful home. Wheather I am actually witnessting it or even while I am Pintresting, beautifully done beaming decors makes me cheered at any given point. 
I wish I could have opted this as a career but destiny had something else in the store for me but nevermind, its my most basked passion and I am always on a hunt to get inspired on living green, bright and beautiful. 

Contemporary has somehow not been my forte and area of liking. I like the taste of my roots that is Indian. I love the old haveli inspired homes, the rajasi living, the beautiful nomadic home of Gujrat and Kutch. The vivid colour schemes of houses in the south and so on. 

Colors in any form excite me. I have here gathered some of the most epicurean homes of India. Some of the best of boheme interios and I am sure you'll like the compilation

I'd soon be covering a post on how to pep up your boring corners with some simple decor DIY's and its absolute fun. There is a diffrent joy altogther when you create something on your own. Some of the simplest stuff and useless clutter at home can help you create a craft and a decor peice. 

For now, enjoy the picture ride:

A little about my home



I followed a draggy corporate regime for most years before turning to my first love i.e; Creativity. I was a painter at school but i did not take my passion for painting seriously. Not just painting, my passion includes art and crafts, travelling, fashion,  Bakingcollecting Mugs (coz I am a die-hard tea lover), Doodling, , Drawing , amateur Photography etc there is a long list of things that make me happy, you can easily call me Happy Singh because I am a lover of life and I want to try out on everything this beautiful life has to offer. 




Home is where my heart is.

Marriage propelled me to move into this house which was a typical bachelor’s mess. Like a challenge, I happily accepted it and began to think how I can turn it into a heaven of my dreams. 
First task comprised of colouring the entire house into a schematic manner. Walls were covered in bright fiery yellow and tint of orange partially. My living room represents life and features a combination of yellow ochre and warm yellow on the corresponding walls.

The furniture is cane wood I procured from an auction fair and truly represents the earthy feel. My taste in interiors is rather rustic than contemporary.  The dark Mahogany shade defends my love for old world charm and antique furniture, which is unique and classy and can turn any ordinary place into special

There is a peculiar beauty about colourful wine bottles which always captivated my attention. These empty bottles now serve a ‘home’ to my feng shui bamboos and money plants.

During a recent visit to West Africa, I got hooked up with the intrinsic beauty of masks. I have picked a few beautiful hand painted masks before from India too from various crafts fairs but the africa picked remains my favorites. 

The ‘terracotta’tiles on my studio wall is inspired by Jamini Roy’s painting, bought impetuously from a local market in Kolkata. You may also stumble upon a hand woven jute owl picked from the same place.


My home is a blend of culture from all over country. You can sense, how different cultures are amalgated under one roof. Incense stand holder, mini triangular wood engraved closet from Saharanpur. Wall hangings and patchwork umbrella purchased from Gujarat handicrafts store. Blue pottery from Jaisalmer. they're all close to my heart.



The bedroom has a huge mural of Adam and eve, i painted myself :)




As an adventurer and enthusiast, I truly believe that a ‘picture is worth a thousand words’. As soon as I get my hands on the SLR camera, which I wish to own one in future, I will not only capture the intrinsic beauty of my house but shall arrest the daily beauty of a life from different perspectives.

Like a true artist, I believe in creating something new rather than working or living on something which already exists. However, blogging helps to gather fresh ideas and conceive them in my unique way.

Here are few latest pictures I clicked at home.



Meet Pranky :)
