Entrance of Kalaśa by From Around Here
At the entrance, a fixed granite seat anchored on a Sadarahalli base sets a grounded first impression. Beside it, a tulsi katte in Sadarahalli complements the ensemble with a touch of tradition. The laterite-clad backdrop beside the main door holds a mirror that reflects the greenery from the shoe unit, adding a refreshing visual lift to the otherwise warm material palette.
The foyer console maintains a light, contemporary feel with its asymmetrical lathe-turned legs, displaying select brass collectibles and a carved wooden Ganesha. In the living area, a wooden ceiling features suspended glass lights, while rafters extend down the wall and finish in carved wooden flowers—an understated nod to regional craftsmanship. A swing becomes the focal point here, visually linking the living room to the courtyard framed by two wooden columns and styled with layered antique pots and planters.

A guthu mané-inspired opening connects the kitchen to the living room, creating a familiar yet modern dialogue between the spaces. The kitchen is kept bright with light finishes and a Vaastu-mandated pop of blue on a stained wooden shelf. To bring more natural light into this zone, the storeroom opens into the kitchen, borrowing daylight from the backyard.
Dining of Kalaśa by From Around Here
The dining and puja areas are compact, intentional spaces designed for quiet rituals and everyday use. The puja sits on a low stone plinth that aligns with the courtyard’s column bases. A custom dining table, paired with chairs that tuck in completely, keeps the layout visually clean. A laterite-clad wall behind the dining area adds warmth and texture.

On the first floor, the bar is integrated into a multifunctional partition that also serves the adjacent gym area. Its lower section houses bottles, glasses, and a mini-fridge alongside gym storage, while the upper section features an Udupi-inspired CNC-cut pattern that adds visual interest without overwhelming the space. The master bedroom follows a soft yellow-beige palette, while the daughter’s room adopts a calm powder blue, inspired by the muted tones of coastal homes. A former balcony transforms into a compact work-from-home corner that opens into a lounge.
‘Kalaśa’ stands as a thoughtful blend of memory and modern living, an urban Bengaluru home infused with the textures, sensibilities, and cultural echoes of Udupi.
