Tucked away in the upscale lanes of Powai, Mumbai, lies a residence that feels more like a soulful retreat than a city apartment. Welcome to Prana… a sublime 3BHK space conceptualized and styled by Studio Rohini Bagla, where the richness of South Indian heritage is effortlessly reimagined through a modern, minimalist lens.
TheGlitz Verdict: This is indeed exquisite. A quiet luxury. A sensory pause in the chaos. Designed with an ethos of warmth, grace, and quiet grandeur, Prana is a chic fusion of past and present, tradition and trend, memory and modernity.
The Language of Layered Luxury
The moment you enter Prana, it becomes clear… this space tells a story. But it doesn’t shout. It whispers. In soft hues, curated textures, and thoughtful silhouettes, it speaks of ancestral homes and sun-dappled courtyards, but with the contemporary sophistication of clean lines, sleek finishes, and refined elegance.
And why not? Studio Rohini Bagla is known for her emotive design voice, and Prana is her most intimate expression yet. Every corner is a quiet composition. Think: natural light cascading over teakwood columns, temple door-inspired arches that frame modern spaces, and handpicked heirloom artefacts that feel at home beside bespoke contemporary pieces.
Textural Poetry in Every Detail
The home’s palette is an ode to earthy luxe, muted terracottas, soft ochres, and raw stone textures that contrast beautifully with warm brass accents and intricate hand-carved details. The textiles? They deserve a spotlight of their own. Handloom fabrics make their way into soft furnishings, turning every cushion and drape into an artisanal delight.
In the living space, a sculptural console in reclaimed wood sits below a gallery wall of Tanjore-inspired art. A gently comfy sofa anchors the room with modern poise, while traditional accents… a brass urli here, a vintage lamp there… complete the visual symphony.
Dining With Heritage, Living With Grace
The dining area feels like a styled shoot out of a design dream. A solid wood table, surrounded by sleek upholstered chairs, is crowned with a statement pendant in matte gold. It’s the kind of setting where Sunday brunches turn into evening soirees, and everyday meals carry a sense of occasion.
The bedrooms are sanctuaries in the truest sense… each bathed in warm neutrals, thoughtfully accessorized with layers of texture and emotion. Rohini’s knack for harmonizing individuality with cohesion is evident; each room has its voice but sings the same song of comfort and refined ease.
The Studio Rohini Bagla Signature
What sets Studio Rohini Bagla apart is her deep understanding of emotional architecture. With Prana, she has captured the ephemeral: nostalgia without weight, luxury without excess, and modernity without compromise.
There’s a deliberate softness to her aesthetic… an undercurrent of femininity and strength that runs through every space. It’s warm without being rustic, traditional without being dated, stylish without being sterile.
PRANA: A Mood, A Memory, A Modern Traditional Masterpiece
In a world leaning into cold minimalism or maximalist chaos, Prana stands apart as a masterclass in quiet luxury. It’s a space where lineage meets lifestyle, and soulful storytelling finds its canvas in every finish, fabric, and frame.
TheGlitz says: Prana isn’t just a home… it’s an invitation to slow down. To reconnect with the soul. To live beautifully.
