Many younger Mylapore families want a modern home without losing the pooja corner, the brass lamp or the space for festival gatherings. Elixir's modern designers handle that balance by keeping lines clean and storage hidden while giving traditional elements a deliberate, uncluttered place.

Planning interiors in Mylapore
Chennai's cultural heart, where traditional homes, temple-street apartments and premium redevelopments share narrow lanes close to the Marina.
- A modern pooja unit here often uses a slim profile, a back-lit panel and a single brass accent instead of heavy carving. It keeps the traditional function with a contemporary look.
- Warm neutrals such as oak, beige and soft white suit Mylapore homes better than stark grey, since they work well with brass and the traditional pieces many families keep.
- Handle-less or profile-handle shutters create clean lines, but in a coastal setting we prefer aluminium profiles over chrome, which can pit in salty air.
- Hidden storage for festival items, such as golu steps and decorations, keeps a modern living room clutter-free for the rest of the year.

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Fix storage before choosing colours
Plan where everything goes first. Choosing trendy colours before storage is settled often leaves modern homes cluttered.
- 02
Limit focal walls
Pick one feature, such as the TV wall or pooja unit. Making every wall a statement works against a modern look.
- 03
Light the work zones properly
Modern homes can feel dim if only ambient lights are used. Add task lighting in the kitchen, study and pooja area.
- 04
Keep profiles and edges consistent
Use the same handle or profile style throughout, so the home reads as one design.
- 05
Plan for gloss maintenance
Glossy acrylic shows fingerprints. If you choose it, use it on areas touched less often and pick matte for daily-use shutters.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Can a modern home still have a traditional pooja space?
Yes. We design pooja units with clean lines, concealed storage and subtle brass accents, keeping the function while matching the modern style of the home.
Which modern finishes work best near the sea?
Matte laminates with sealed edges and anodised aluminium profiles hold up well. We avoid exposed chrome and raw MDF edges in coastal homes.
Is a modern design more expensive?
Not necessarily. Clean designs can sit within the Premium band of approximately ₹3.8L – ₹7L for a 3BHK, pre-GST. Specialty finishes and concealed lighting add cost.
How do I avoid a cold, clinical look?
Use warm woods, soft lighting and textured fabrics alongside clean lines. Our designers balance contrast so the home feels lived-in.
Where do festival decorations go in a modern home?
We plan concealed lofts or deep cabinets for golu steps, lamps and decorations, so they are easy to access once a year and invisible the rest of the time.
