ECR · PIN 600115

Planning interiors in Injambakkam

A quiet ECR stretch with beach houses, villa communities and a creative, artsy residential crowd.

  • Creative households often own canvases, paper, instruments or craft tools, and flat drawers or deep shelving built into a studio wall keep them organised and dust-free.
  • Book collections are common, and a full-height book wall with a rolling ladder or a low built-in shelf along a corridor stores them while adding character.
  • Media equipment and cables in open living rooms are best concealed in a low, ventilated unit so the TV area does not dominate the space.
  • Built-in bench seating along verandah walls or bay windows can hold cushions, board games and throws in drawers below.

Plan smarter

Five ways to keep your budget on track

  1. 01

    Build a studio storage wall

    Use flat file drawers, deep shelves and pegboards for art supplies, instruments or craft materials in a creative room.

  2. 02

    Turn a corridor into a library

    Fit low or full-height shelving along corridors to store books without using room space.

  3. 03

    Hide media clutter

    Plan a low, ventilated media unit with cable channels so devices stay tidy in the open living area.

  4. 04

    Use benches with drawers

    Built-in benches along windows or verandahs offer seating and storage in one.

  5. 05

    Keep tall units off open sightlines

    Place tall cabinets against side walls so views across the open plan stay clear.

FAQ

Questions homeowners ask

Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.

Why does an open-plan villa need space-saving design?

Without walls and doors to hide clutter, everything is visible. Built-in storage keeps the open space calm while holding books, supplies and equipment.

What does a 3BHK cost with space-saving storage?

Approximately ₹3.1L – ₹5.8L in Basic, ₹3.8L – ₹7L in Premium and ₹4.4L – ₹8.2L in Ultra Premium, pre-GST, for a typical 3BHK, depending on how much custom storage you add.

How should I store art supplies?

Flat file drawers for paper and prints, deep shelves for canvases and closed cabinets for paints keep materials organised and protected from dust and humidity.

Can a book wall work in a humid coastal home?

Yes, with moisture-resistant boards, good air circulation and avoiding external walls prone to damp. Closed lower sections help protect less-used books.

Will built-in storage make the space feel smaller?

Not if tall units are kept to side walls and low storage is used in the centre of the open plan, keeping sightlines clear.
