Between Hues is a compact home in Mumbai designed for a family of three, built around the idea of finding balance through colour and restraint. The name reflects the project’s core concept, existing between bold hues and everyday living.

The original layout was re-imagined to create a fluid connection between the kitchen and living area. Every inch was thoughtfully optimized, with storage seamlessly flushed into wall cavities to eliminate visual clutter and preserve precious floor space. This open-plan intervention allows natural light to flow uninterrupted through the home, making it feel brighter, larger, and inherently more connected.

In a home of this scale, colour became the defining design language. A warm, neutral shell forms the backdrop, allowing carefully composed hues- from deep cobalt blues and muted blush tones to soft creams and contrasting black accents, to take focus. The palette was intentionally designed to make the home feel playful and uplifting, allowing colour to become the element that brings movement and individuality to otherwise clean, minimal surfaces. The result is an apartment where colour creates identity and character without overwhelming the space.

Thoughtful design details reinforce this quiet sophistication. The mother’s wardrobe is concealed within a seamless accent wall, transforming storage into an architectural feature, while a former wall cavity has been re-purposed as a sleek recessed crockery display. Gentle curves soften thresholds, mirrors and cabinetry throughout the apartment. This creates graceful transitions that visually expand the interiors and lend the home a sense of effortless flow.

Between Hues is a celebration of planning, functionality and the transformative power of colour. It demonstrates that even within a small footprint, a home can be spacious in feeling, playful in spirit, and deeply personal in character.
