The interior that finally fits the family.
Most Shalimar Bagh interiors are 12–20 years old. The bones are good but the plan is dated — formal drawing rooms no one uses, dark corridors, kitchens cut off from family life. We redo Shalimar Bagh interiors from the inside out: same floor plate, dramatically better day-to-day living.
What a Shalimar Bagh interior typically needs
A 1,200–1,800 sq-ft builder-floor in C, BK or AC block usually opens with a long corridor, a formal drawing room facing the road, and a closed kitchen at the back. The family lives in the bedroom wing and uses the drawing room three times a year. The single most consequential plan move is opening the kitchen to the dining and family room. Almost every other improvement follows.
The other recurring move is the master suite. Original plans gave the master bedroom 130–150 sq-ft and the children’s rooms 110–130 sq-ft. We rebalance so the master gets 180–200 sq-ft with a walk-in wardrobe and a proper en-suite, taking the difference from a corridor or a guest bedroom that wasn’t earning its space.
Scope we handle
- Strip-and-redo interior renovations on existing floors (5–7 months).
- Plan-level renovations: open kitchen, master suite, new joinery, retained services.
- Cosmetic refresh: flooring, paint, joinery refresh, new lighting (8–10 weeks).
- Furniture, soft-furnishings and accessories curation (separate scope, billed on top).
- Loose & built-in lighting plan with dimmers and zones for every room.
We will tell you in the first walk-through which 20% of your wishlist is structurally constrained and which 80% is just a question of cost. The honesty saves four weeks of moodboarding.

Living through the renovation
For a full strip-out, almost no one stays in the unit. For a plan-level renovation, some clients stay for the first month while services are intact and shift out for the rough work. Strip-out clients typically move to a rented unit nearby for 4–5 months. The shift adds cost but takes 4–6 weeks off the schedule because the team can run two shifts in an empty house.
We will give you both options at the start so you can plan around school terms, parental visits and the festivals that matter to your family. Diwali in a half-finished kitchen is no one’s idea of a happy renovation.
