Finding Manasa was like “needle in a haystack” job from my end. I had a very specific requirement on how I wanted my new house to be! I wanted a typical theme based interiors which is completely “white" that would bring in a mix of old and new western style designs for the entire home. Yes you heard it right, completely white interiors. Keeping this in mind these specifics, of-course needles to say keeping the financials in place including the workmanship that interior designer would bring in was extremely important. I wanted an entire turn-key project at my place.
As always like everyone else, the reviews which Manasa and team already had, helped me shortlist. Finally spoken, had few pre iterations of mocks, designs, mood boards which helped us to move forward. And then I said “YES, Manasa I guess you know my exact need, and it will be my pleasure that you could execute this design”. Crux of the design that I wanted was to bring in all the elements in the design, yet, one should not feel its clumsy. Keeping the ‘minimalistic approach’ in mind I guess is the art that only few of the fine designers have it in them. And since, I had travelled lot of countries I had a fixed mindset on how I wanted my home. I feel Manasa hit it right on the first go, and she knew and understood what I meant. Thats the kind of established connection and approach was needed which I strongly believed in.
We kicked off, and took a very meticulous step by step approach. And I must say that every step, Manasa had brought in all her expertise and out of box ideas for the designs, room wise, that showcased how each room has to be done. This basically included everything including the wardrobe designs, tv unit designs, the placement of each piece of wood, the lights, the curtains, the mirrors and the most small subtle details like what type of door knobs, door handles what not. I think she had it all sorted and knew what would go good. Cohesively working along with her based on the initial specifications which were etched out, I guess it was on spot.
Slowly progressed our ways, and converting each room, living room, kitchen into reality keeping in mind the theme and subtleties of design elements turned everything into a jaw dropping made like heaven dream home which I always yearned for! The entire effort and team work which Manasa implemented was spotless. And at any point, I couldn’t find any deviation or negatives in the plan. She and her team had it perfectly done.
Finally, after a year long consistent effort day in day out, I must say that I did a perfect choice of choosing Manasa for this beautiful project. In-fact, the project is so good, that I would request all prospective clients/customers to please-come and have a sneak peak into my home to see her work and how neat it is executed. Its at the at-most near perfection that its played out. I can go on and on..
However, for my entire family, friends and esp. to all my apartment neighbours our house had become a model home for all ongoing visitors to come and see her work. They were all stunned to see how a 4 walled plain home turned out to be marvellous piece of art. It has come that beautiful!!!
And I still feel, I need more things in place, I guess that my greed has got into me and yearns for more and more elements in the house after seeing her work and implementations. He he…
Manasa, you are great to work with, and you have the right attitude and approach towards everything. I am extremely happy that this does not end here and I have got a great friend to cherish for.
Thank you and your team.
