<image:caption>The first thing that catches the eye upon entering the house is the striking red floor. Athangudi tiles are found in many homes in South India, and the floor has been designed in a similar style.</image:caption>

<image:caption>In a city like Mumbai, even a small balcony filled with plants is a luxury. Yet this home has three plant-filled balconies! Spending time on this balcony is an important part of Malavika’s morning routine. Residents use this corridor to reach their bedrooms.</image:caption>
