With India making great strides in the field of Information Technology and the West outsourcing its work to our talented workforce, it is time that we presented before the world a new, modern and vibrant India – an India that has beautifully integrated its own heritage with the best of the world.
‘Living in India’ is an insight into how a modern, chic Indian lives – a splendorous living that evokes envy, sets aspirations and showcases to the world elegant and sophisticated living in India. The 47 homes hailing from all across the country – Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata to Panaji, Ahemdabad, Surat, Hyderabad, Thiruvananthapuram and even Salem in Tamil Nadu, bring to life the country’s voguish living styles.
Each of these homes makes a statement – a statement of class, luxury, distinction and panache.
The homes featured in the book belong to a cross-section of people – industrialists, interior designers, architects, artists and jewellers – and each carries a distinct flavour. Carefully handpicked and brilliantly photographed, ‘Living in India’ gives a pan-Indian glimpse of the distinct styles of interiors representing the best of cosmopolitan features, artefacts, furniture and other interior accessories.
The books is not a technical analysis on architecture or interiors but a peek into the India living trends, a ‘walk-through’ that leads you by hand into a different class o homes in India.
