Interior design cost in Sholinganallur
Sholinganallur sits where the OMR meets the link road to ECR, and most of its new housing is stacked in tall gated towers serving the tech parks nearby. That shapes interior budgets in two ways: compact, efficiently planned flats where every running foot of carpentry counts, and building rules that affect how and when work can happen on site.

Planning interiors in Sholinganallur
A major OMR–ECR link junction with dense gated communities, tech parks and new high-rises.
- Most enquiries from Sholinganallur come from 2BHKs between 900 and 1,200 sq ft of carpet area, with 3BHKs of 1,250 to 1,700 sq ft close behind, so the comparison table above covers the two layouts nearly every tower here offers.
- High-rise towers usually restrict carpentry to a booked service lift and fixed working hours, which favours factory-made modular units that arrive cut and edge-banded rather than on-site carpentry that needs long days of cutting and polishing.
- Salt in the air drifting in from the ECR side corrodes cheap hinges and channels in a few seasons, so a hardware upgrade is one of the more sensible places to spend in this locality, especially in the kitchen and utility.
- Upper-floor flats facing west take strong afternoon sun through large windows, which fades some laminates and makes blinds or UV-stable finishes worth including in the scope.
- Many owners here are IT professionals who work from home part of the week, so a study desk built into a bedroom wardrobe run is a frequent line item in Sholinganallur estimates.

Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Read the association handbook first
Check the tower's interior work hours, lift booking process and debris rules before the design is final, so the installation plan fits the building rather than fighting it.
- 02
Spend on hardware before finishes
With coastal humidity in play, soft-close hinges and drawer channels from brands like Hettich last longer than a cheaper fitting hidden behind an expensive shutter.
- 03
Decide the work-from-home corner early
A desk, monitor wall and extra sockets are far cheaper to plan into the first drawing than to retrofit after the wardrobes are installed.
- 04
Compare quotes on the same scope
Ask each designer to price the same list of wardrobes, lofts, kitchen length and ceiling work. Otherwise a lower number may simply mean less carpentry.
- 05
Keep a buffer for lighting and electrical
Builder wiring in new towers rarely matches a designed lighting plan, and adding profile lights or relocating points is a common addition to the base estimate.

FAQ
Common cost questions
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Why is Premium the most popular package in Sholinganallur?
Buyers here often want better shutters and hardware than an entry package but without specialty finishes in every room. Premium tends to balance durability against coastal humidity with a sensible spend, though your designer will suggest what suits your flat.
Does a higher floor change the interior cost?
The floor itself does not change the material cost, but lift availability and restricted working hours can stretch the installation schedule. Your designer factors the tower's rules into the project plan.
Is the price different for a 3BHK in the same tower?
Yes, a 3BHK typically falls in a higher band, approximately ₹3.1L – ₹5.8L in Basic, because of extra wardrobes, a larger kitchen and more ceiling area. The exact figure depends on what you include.
Are the prices inclusive of GST?
No, the ranges shown are approximate and pre-GST. Your final quotation will list GST separately along with the detailed scope.
How long does production take once I sign off?
Factory production typically takes 15–20 working days after the design is approved. Site installation time depends on your tower's working hours and the scope involved.
