Pooja’s House-full of love : Pooja’s masterfully crafted home is built with the wisdom of older homes in India, paired with modern design aesthetic that mirrors the best in the world.
Tucked away in an unlikely lane in Mumbai’s Bandra is superstar Pooja Hegde’s home. Up on a high floor, overlooking a pond and with views of the Arabian Sea is this lovingly designed and masterfully crafted home that speaks to her attention to detail and her love for the idea of home.
Pooja’s home draws on several inspirations the actor has experienced in her travels around the world: there’s heavy hints of London right at the main door --- that perfect shade of green instantly takes you back to that city’s quaint alleys and streets.
There’s so much to take in here: from the terrazzo-finish fireplace, to the L-shaped pastel pink couch positioned against the textured cream wall, to the dining table that was carved out of a single log of wood. This home is designed with love, and it shows
The home makes use of space smartly, with hidden doors that reveal storage space. Colours through the home are in pastels, while the lights and fixtures around the house make use of exposed filaments as a motif. And there’s clear intent in the allocation of floor space too: this is a working actor’s home, and an entire room has been dedicated for use as a green room/walk-in closet
It's rare to see a home like this one: built with the wisdom of older homes in India, and paired with modern design aesthetic that mirrors the best in the world.
