This architectural masterpiece designed by Soch’s founder and principal designer Romit Savla, unravels the intricacies and essence of refined living.
Stepping across and into the apartment, one is immediately enveloped in a sense of grandeur and sophistication. The main door, crafted from white fluted paneling interwoven with ash-grey wooden accents is an ode to exquisite craftsmanship. In the transformation of Whimsical House, even the safety doors, typically overlooked for their design potential, become works of art. Crafted with polyurethane finishes and matching peep-through grills, they blend style with security.

A console, delicately crafted from brass wood and Brazilian marble, commands attention as it rests against a fluted marble wall. Additionally, digital art paintings adorn the left-hand wall. This further adds a contemporary flair, setting the tone for the aesthetic marvels that await within.

Textured painted grooves and white terrazzo countertops further create a sense of warmth and tranquillity. The island, counter and linear counter, moreover, provide ample space for culinary endeavours and preparations.
