How to Calculate Budget for the Interior Design of Your Home?

This is part of a series of posts that takes you through the whole process of getting interiors done for your home – whether it is new or renovation. In this post, two interior designers tell you how much to budget/allocate for interiors of your home. “What is your budget?” “What is your budget?” “What is your budget?” We had no frigging clue. And you know how frustrating it is to keep hearing a question when you are not clued in. This is one question that all interior designers ask you and sometimes even begin with when you approach them for interior design of your home. And yes, I am not ashamed to admit that we had no frigging clue of what it should cost. We knew roughly the stuff we wanted to get done in the house and what we did not want. But, until we started doing our…

95 Comments

This Chettinad inspired house was all about going back to roots, for its owners Sai and Anusha. The 2,500 sq.ft style Chettinad architecture style apartment in Bangalore has been designed by Jyothika Baleri of Destination Designs. This post is going to be a little different because instead of me Jyothika will narrate the journey of how this house came about to be a home for Sai and Anusha. Over to Joe… I very strongly believe if you go back to your roots, if you mine that inner territory, you can bring out something that is incredibly you and authentic – like your thumbprint. It’s going to have your style because there is no one like you. -Joyce Tenneson One Sunday afternoon, I got a call to accommodate a meeting on that day. It’s only for half an hour they said and requested we meet immediately! I obliged. This is how…

There’s something about taking a peek inside real homes. There’s a bit of suspense of what lies behind those doors, of how people dress their homes, and the excitement builds if the doorway is tastefully decorated. What I have for you today is the renovation of a 20-year old home in Vidyaranyapura, Bangalore by Jyothika Baleri of Destination Designs. Renovated homes are tricky and it takes trained eyes to see beyond what is obvious and unlock the potential.

You know you are in for a visual treat looking at this picture, right? This is entrance of a Good Home earth. So, just let your imagination run wild for what to expect inside. Real wild..you will not be disappointed. For the past three weeks, we have been going around town looking for wooden pillars for the pooja room for our home. The pooja area is not a separate room, but stands in the center of the house.
