With the help of a diverse material palette in varied permutations and combinations, patterns take centre stage in this house designed by DesignRitmo. Summing up to 540 square meters and spread over three levels, the inspiring interiors were imagined as a play of patterns using different materials in a single box. DesignRitmo’s concept was to generate different patterns and most of them are based on graphics within a simple line grid. The layout of the bungalow is also in accordance to this simple grid. A mixed range of materials, textures and patterns compose a different story for all these separate spaces, and combined they induce a sense of calm recollection. Open planning provides a continuum of space right from the living room to the dining-kitchen zone, with only the staircase in between becoming a segregation indicator. As one explores the second floor housing the bedrooms, we quickly realise that each of the bedrooms has a specific signature pattern according to the tenor of the room’s essence. An interesting play of negative and positive features in the spaces is the tool used by Dipesh Kheni and his team to paint the entire house in a beautiful and inspiring style.
