PriyankaS's Profile

If I did not know that the house belonged to an expat, I would have certainly believed the owner was an Indian 

Like anywhere else, design sense and choices are diverse in India, tastes not heavy on cliched bright colours and other stuff ethnic are common and minimalism is not foreign.

Natural light is an integral part of Indian households (we worship the Sun God) but so is our effort to block it out in summers. But Katie is right in saying that finding a house with lots of sunlight is tough these days in New Delhi considering the pace of construction and property rates.

White paint should not be a problem provided you know the right hardware shop.

I see no problem in Katie trying to create her own nook in a foreign country. I live outside India and my years abroad have enriched but not altered my style, which is purely Indian.
