P1B IVY: Modern, Contemporary and Graceful

P1B IVY is a modern, contemporary, and graceful residence. P1B IVY, designed by Architecture Discipline, is the epitome of modernity. The penthouse, ‘The IVY’, next to the eminent ‘The Laburnum’, Gurgaon spreads across 780sq.m. While including a handful of classical elements, the residence embodies a sense of inclusiveness and class. The spacious penthouse, designed by the design team led by Kashika Nanda, spans across three levels, including a spacious terrace. A diligently curated colour palette in red, blue, and green hues pops out, adding a sense of life to the residence. The design provides a required depth while exuding bright vibes that instantly uplift the mood of the residents.

The Entrance Lobby

This luxuriously designed penthouse with its bright and ‘out-there’ character is a ‘happy home’ spanning across three levels. The frosted glass entrance door leads people to the entrance lobby. The pattern on the entrance door adds a transposable character, giving visitors a sneak peek of the house even before they enter. On entering, there is a double-height bookshelf in black. The bookshelf’s design creates a sense of mystery. The flooring with a wooden finish complements this bookshelf in black. It thus makes the space more appealing.

The Staircase

The staircase painted black with a teak finish balustrade has multiple layers of paint beneath it.
