Home for a Book Reader by STaND Design Studio is a minimalist masterpiece

share article

STaND Design Studio has already established itself as a skilled proponent of minimalism, expression and sustainability. One of their Mumbai projects—Home for a Book Reader—is the ideal representation of this philosophy. Featuring deftly concealed storage, an expandable open kitchen and compact furniture coupled with a muted, breezy colour palette this home truly is a minimalist masterpiece. The centrepiece of the space is undoubtedly the multifunctional bookshelf catering to the owner’s passion. Scroll down to read the designer’s note on this home.

 

Every home should be a reflection of the identity of those who live in it and this project allowed us to truly explore that idea. This home for one revolves around a sense of independence; each space has a clear identity of its own but is united in concept. As part of a congested city, with small spaces, the space had to be extended to reach its full potential with hidden storage, single loaded walls, an open expandable kitchen and compact loose furniture.

The dining space was created by opening out the kitchen and connecting it to the living space with sliding doors that cleverly hid into the walls on either side creating a sense of openness and adaptability.

Being a home for a true lover of books, a multi functional bookshelf was the centrepiece of the main living area and clearly represents the homeowner’s own personality.

The bedroom is a paragon of efficiency. The intentional loading of one wall with all the necessary functions – wardrobe, bed and study was a tool we used to explore spatial efficiency. The recessed bed allows for convenient reading lights within the overhead storage and hidden storage was crafted into the headboard as well.
