The second floor opens up to a more homey family setting of furniture, the color tone of the furniture parallel to the earthen tones. A subtle library also acts as a partition. 

The Beige master bedroom hues run on the stress-reducing colour palate and hence these super soft tones lend a calming aura to this bedroom space. Using similar hues on walls, furnishings and bedding, this design creates an artistic look especially for the bed back with earthen tone leather finish and wood finished vitrified tiles. From the armchair to the overall look of the bedroom, the space calls for peace and comfort.
