10 Interior designing ideas to steal from Sarita Handa’s gorgeous Mumbai and Delhi stores

Are you one of those looking for a fresh start? Or in pursuit to heal your existing home? Or maybe perhaps just one of those who believe in changing curtains or upholstery every season with mix and match of cushions adding the right color according to your personality to give a very new look going with your mood each season?

I am enthused by the idea of bringing home some spring this season and for this very reason I am putting my best foot forward to decorate, decorate and decorate, out of comfort zone!

Let’s have a look at the concepts that are playing the role of big influencers and game changers for me this season.

1. Bring outdoors inside your home

I am extremely inspired by this design theme using  products from Sarita Handa (a leading brand name for premium home furnishings) that shout spring for me. How incredible are these low maintenance indoor plants as a backdrop to the chripy bright vibrance of the accents, rugs and cushions? This is my spring-summer heaven!

2. Art your heart out

Alright this one is for those who believe in keeping outdoors, well, out!  But don’t ignore how adding art can change the entire look of a living space. Visit more studios and galleries this year, check out more of student art, and if it resonates with you… no questions asked buy it.

This theme inspiration from Sarita Handa’s store plays well on the importance of not just art but also the other impressive details. That I talk about in below mentioned points.

3. Odd one in!

Carefully examine and acknowledge the wheels under the table that just instantly add drama to this living room. Moving away from traditional known and accepted norms can entirely transform the look and this can be appreciated here, when the table is complimented with upholstered mix and match accent chairs.

4. Rug rule that you must not forget

Small living rooms or small living spaces require smaller rugs to make the room look bigger. The color of the rug that you choose will be the defining point of your living space. Though a wall to wall rug will give a luxurious warm look, I prefer a smaller vibrant rug to have a playful and cheerful look or a romantic look, all depending upon the placement of furniture and decor items. If you too like smaller rugs then make sure that not all the legs of your furniture are placed on the rug. In fact it is advisable to have your furniture placed at odd angles with only a leg or two of your accents on top of the rug.

5. Cushions, cushions and then some more

Till date I have not come across anyone who has not instantly fallen in love with Sarita Handa’s cushions! Don’t be afraid to contrast the cushions in any color you please, to add that zing to the rooms of your house. When it comes to cushions just keep experimenting and add more and more of them wherever you please! Believe me it works. You know instant gratification? Well that’s what it is! If there ever were room gods, be certain they shower all the blessings on rooms full of color filled cushions! In fact hand embroidered cushions are Sarita Handa’s best selling products!

6. Of kitsch, spotlights and maps

This decor inspiration using Sarita Handa’s products is a deal kissed with lots of love from my point of view! I love the idea of cosying up in a spot like this, with the warmth exuding from the carefully chosen beiges, browns and mocha. The appeal also largely lies in the studio spotlight under which I would love to comfortably sit on an accent such as this with a casual warm toned cushion to support me as I burn the mid night oil. And oh! The map in the backdrop! Takes my breath away as it rekindles the travel spirit in me over and over again!

7. Lamps and chandeliers

Lighting plays a vital role in under playing or over playing any space. Let the lights that you choose be the actor of the entire look that you pick. Let them steal the show. As it can be seen in this chandelier from the Sarita Handa Mumbai store, which adds a subtle charm to this place.

8. Throw them the right way

Throws on furniture can also make for a delightful and aesthetically pleasing sight. They have the ability to add instant luxe to any furniture giving the home a modern and livable appeal. Also while you are at it, why not decide to change that fabric that you have been stuck to since forever on your chairs!

Sarita Handa stores in Khan Market, Delhi and MG Road have been a source of immense pleasure to Delhites as they have assisted in decorating countless homes. New addition to the store has been much to the delight of Mumbai’s houses, because Sarita Handa has now launched their 2,500 ft. store in Shakti Mill Lane, Mahalaxmi , Mumbai. It is a standalone property full of natural light and multi level floor to please each and everyone who walks in!

Sarita Handa is headed by Suparna Handa, who is the brand director and Capt. Rahul Puri who is the executive director.

9. Sarita Handa believes in simplicity of a place and insists on avoiding clutter.

10. Make sure you stay focused on your priorities and budget as you can’t have it all! She says “Designing a house is like getting dressed every morning. You can love a dozen different styles, but you can’t wear them all. With an array of products that create different style statements, it’s important to stay focused on your needs and avoid losing your way.
