The client approached us with the willingness to design a jewellery boutique at one of the prime locations in Ahmedabad, named CG Road. This 1500 sq. ft. carpet area boutique store is designed to be serene, with neutral white walls and minimal texture added by veneering furniture.
The main aim of the design was to amalgamate creativity, functionality, and practicality to provide a completely immersive experience to the client and the customers. It was to be kept in mind that the design should not only be trendy and refreshing but also maintain a certain degree of the classic timelessness the brand stood for.
The year 2022 can already be summarized as one of the most fertile ever in the local design industry, and at the start of the new year, we have chosen to present to you one of the most beautiful projects created during the year: A Jaffa holiday apartment to which you cannot remain indifferent. With wisdom and sensitivity, the interior designer, Keren Niv Toledano, selected items and elements that show enormous respect for the environment and the local culture, with contemporary and modern adaptation. And the result? Precise, exciting and inspiring.

This 6,700 square foot residence takes up, through its layout, part of the footprint of the existing residence of yesteryear. The main axis of the residence, both interior and exterior, in addition to acting as a vertical circulation, also connects the garage to the residence by a roof structure serving as a carport. From the front door, then successively through the lobby, the stairwell and the swimming pool, our gaze is directed outside, towards the lake.
Electric Pawn Shop takes birth as an F&B bar in the back of the H-Hotel, reading the traces of the restaurant that was once there. It projects to the inside the movement, light and speed of the cars on the second of November bridge, generating a theatrical play of reflections.
The project takes its inspiration from the 70’s Chinatown of New York replicating its dark and dystopian vibe whilst staying true to the essence of UAE’s culture. Consequently, the metropolitan environment shaping the bar is characterized by an after-dark dining feel, retro chairs, and red neon interiors where good music and exotic cuisine could merge to create a holistic sensory experience. We envisioned creating a new nightlife atmosphere unfolding a new generation of Asian bars through a venue that fuses counter culture and underground music. The limitations and possibilities of the tenant space were something we took into consideration, as we looked deep into its left-over textures.

REGENERATION OF AN OLD SHOE FACTORY INTO 3 MEWS HOUSES AND 6 FLATS
Initially gaining ‘change of use’ of this property, held in a family portfolio for many years, via a ‘permitted development’ application, then applying for the vertical extension of the central block, we managed to put a scheme together for 9 units – 3 mews-type houses and 6 flats.
Working with the existing fabric of an industrial brick, we propose new elements in black timber and zinc. The development is highly insulated and has excellent environmental credentials.
All the units are arranged around a communal courtyard, and backs onto a local park, so giving plenty of light and pleasant leafy views.
