Materials & Finishes

What your home is made of.

The materials behind the finish decide how long your interiors last. Here is what we use, where we use it, and why — chosen for Bangalore's monsoon humidity, dust and daily family life.

Boards & plywood

The core of every cabinet and wardrobe. The right grade in the right place is what makes joinery last.

MR grade plywood

Moisture-resistant plywood for dry areas such as bedroom wardrobes, TV units and living room storage.

BWR / BWP grade plywood

Boiling-water-resistant and boiling-water-proof plywood for kitchens, vanities and anything near water.

Engineered boards

High-density engineered boards for specific shutters and panels where a smooth, stable surface is needed.

Edge banding

Machine-applied edge banding seals every cut edge against moisture.

Shutter finishes

The surface you see and touch every day. Each finish has its own look, durability and care.

Laminate

Durable, economical and available in matte, textured, wood and stone looks. Anti-fingerprint options hide marks.

Acrylic

A smooth, high-shine or matte surface with rich colour — ideal for a sleek, contemporary kitchen.

PU paint

A seamless painted finish in almost any colour, for a premium look; needs a little more care.

Veneer

Real wood with natural grain and warmth, sealed with a protective PU finish.

Glass & profiles

Fluted or frosted glass in aluminium profiles for display units and wardrobe accents.

Counters & surfaces

Kitchen and vanity tops that handle heat, stains and daily use.

Granite

Very hard and heat-resistant, with natural variation — a reliable choice for Indian cooking.

Quartz

A uniform, contemporary look with low maintenance; hot vessels should go on a trivet.

Solid surface

Seamless and repairable, good for vanities and curved designs.

Hardware & accessories

The moving parts that decide how a kitchen or wardrobe feels to use, every day, for years.

Soft-close hinges

Doors close gently and stay aligned.

Tandem & telescopic drawers

Full-extension drawers that carry heavy vessels smoothly.

Lift-up systems

Wall-cabinet doors that open upwards, out of your way.

Kitchen accessories

Corner carousels, tall pantry pull-outs, cutlery and thali organisers, and bottle pull-outs.

Ceilings, walls & lighting

Finishes that shape the mood of every room.

Gypsum false ceilings

Smooth, fast to install and ideal for cove and profile lighting.

Wall finishes

Washable emulsions, textured paints, limewash, panelling and wallpaper.

LED lighting

Profile lights, cove strips, spotlights and pendants in warm and neutral white.

Premium finishes

Five finishes cover almost every look we design, from a high-gloss kitchen to a warm, grained bedroom wall.

PU finish

A smooth, durable surface with a rich, luxurious feel, resistant to moisture, scratches and everyday wear.

Membrane

A seamless, elegant and low-maintenance surface that stays durable and stylish for years.

Acrylic

Sourced for clarity and shine, with a high-gloss, reflective surface that gives any space a bold, contemporary edge.

Veneer

Premium natural and engineered veneers, selected for grain quality and a lasting finish, for rich texture and timeless warmth.

Laminates

A curated range of premium laminates, chosen for durability, design variety and consistent quality across every project.
