The Walkthrough

A duplex penthouse pared back to its essentials — stone, oak and shadow — where every room frames the tree canopy of Koregaon Park.

THE BRIEF

The clients had lived in Singapore for over a decade and returned to Pune wanting the calm of the homes they had admired abroad — without losing the warmth of an Indian household. The brief was a single word they kept returning to: quiet.

ZONE 01 — LIVING

THE SITE

A duplex penthouse in Koregaon Park with sweeping, uninterrupted views of the old-growth tree canopy. While the spatial volume was generous, the original layout felt overly segmented and disconnected from the natural beauty outside the windows.

THE CHALLENGES

The primary challenge lay in balancing the vast scale of the duplex with the client's desire for an intimate, minimalist aesthetic. Stripping back the interiors risked making the home feel sterile, while the sheer volume of natural light required careful material curation to prevent harsh glares.

THE SOLUTION

We removed four walls and let the plan breathe. Materials were limited to a strict palette of travertine, fumed oak and lime plaster, so the eye rests instead of reads. Storage disappears into full-height oak panelling — luxury here is the absence of clutter, not the presence of ornament.

Every window is treated as a painting of the park. The interior's restraint is what lets the canopy outside become the artwork.

ZONE 04 — MASTER SUITE

We came back to India for family. Weaver gave us a home that feels like the best of both our lives.
