For an apartment in Minerva Towers, Mahalaxmi, Mumbai, architect Abhishek Mathur designed a 125 sq ft dining room that is high on both drama and style. "We wanted the dining space to look glamorous and inviting at the same time. So, we placed a beautiful white onyx feature wall which provides a backdrop for a custom made handcrafted brass screen with geometric motifs," says Mathur, adding, "The furniture is eclectic, the dining tables and chairs are from an Italian manufacturer, while the bar armoire (over 100-years-old) was sourced locally in Mumbai from an antique store. Smart accessories and wildlife-inspired artworks create a unique dining experience."
