We started off this small apartment interior design by asking ourselves what the hidden underwater world is like. We conducted a study on it and then began the designing process. Upon entering the house, the first sea element that the visitors or occupants confront is a louver partition wall between entry hall & the living room. This partition was designed in the form of the elongated trees, which are found under the sea bed. Upon entering the living room, one would find a bizarre set of sitters. These sitters were custom-designed .The chandelier & the side-lamp was also customized to give off the impression of underneath the sea. The back-drop walls of the living room were designed with concrete. Concrete was chosen for a very particular reason. We wanted to re-create the texture and out-look of the sea corals by perforating the concrete. In the informal sitting area, the platform was raised and  processed using wooden tiles so that it would represent the deck of a ship. For the back-drop, wall brick was used so that it broke away from the coral walls and gave us a dry feeling of the deck. The dining room was designed in such a way so that it looks like the occupants are dining in an uneven shaped black rock, spread out into the white floor and over it; the chandelier shines like a setting from a sea-shore dining. The back-drop walls in the master bed-room were also designed with concrete to create that coral effect. The lighting through-out the whole house-hold was done in a way so that it gave the aura of the under-world and created that quiet and haunted look of the sea.
