A Home with Traditional Indian Touch:))


Elements of aesthetic and ethnic decor lend a stunning look to Jaiya Venkat's home at Bangalore in the Indian state of Karnataka. It is truly a home of her dreams. Her home reflects her aesthetic sense with collection of exquisite Indian artifacts and paintings. The beautiful Tanjour painting with deities images on the walls have a universal appeal and intangible presence of the omnipotent. 

 As we go from room to room we are struck by the play of  earthy tones, vibrant colors and textures. The look gives a impeccable finish. The bed, couch and the chairs have a strong traditional characters. 

 Jaiya created a harmonize,  elegant traditional home with her wonderful collections and I am pleased to share this beautiful home on  home tour series at Crystal grandeur.     
































 

Note on Tanjore Painting: Tanjore Painting or Thanjavur Oviyum in local language is a classical South Indian painting originated way back in 1600 A.D. from the town of Thanjavur or Tanjore. It is characterized by rich flat and vivid colors, simple iconic composition of glittering gold foils over laid on delicate but extensive gesso work and inlay of glass beads and pieces or rarely precious and semi precious gems. The subjects of most paintings are related to Hindu Gods and Goddesses.

    What a Beautiful home! The rich deep colors and depth of tones in the wood are stunning. Sleek and modern with touches of tradition. So beautiful! My oldest daughter and I actually have touches of an Indian influence in our homes. One day I will post pictures of what we have. Sorry I haven't been commenting lately on your posts. I haven't had a computer for a couple of months and if I am in great need I go to the library and use theirs. Keep cool..Your friend, Valerie.

    Oh my Sujatha! I so enjoyed the tour in this amazingly stunning home.
    I love all the Indian details from artwork to the awesome furniture in this house.
    The tall dresser in one of the rooms caught my eye big time.

    Such a beautiful home. The colors are warm and inviting. I love the texture added to walls as well. My favorite piece of art is the Elephant God statue. Marie

The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us.

Coffee in the Bedroom

The bedroom, the place where we spend one-third of our life, is a special place indeed and it holds all the beautiful possibilities that we wake up to early in the morning. Enjoying coffee in bed along with reading the newspaper is something one looks forward to & it is a wonderful feeling after a hard days work too. Like many I love the smell and taste of coffee made from a Peculator, and it is also easy and quick to prepare coffee with. Having coffee in bed, along with breakfast on a Sunday morning makes you feel fresh, something that every heart would wish for. Presenting a coffee scape from my bedroom on an early Sunday morning & enjoy your cuppa. Please do visit Cusine Kathleen Please do visit A Delightsome LIfe
