John Abraham’s Sea Facing House In Mumbai

3D Power Architectural Visualization Company




John Abraham’s house at Bandra Bandstand is an AJA or Abraham John Architects project, which is the interiors firm run by his father Abraham John and brother Alan Abraham. This project has won the National Runner-Up at IIID Anchor Awards and was also nominated for the World Interiors News Awards in 2013.

His duplex style house covers an area of around 5000 sq. ft. and has two storeys. John wanted his personal space to encompass nature and has used wood and glass to convey his thoughts of simplicity. His bathroom has all the modern accessories including a Jacuzzi and a 130 inch projector screen. The terrace consists of the media room which has a home theatre system.


There’s a staircase that goes from the living and dining space to the room, which was previously the outhouse and now renovated into an entertainment centre. Since John hates bright colours, the central theme of the house has been kept warm, earthy and functional with no unnecessary clutter; his walls have no photographs or wall hangings.


His furniture and accessories are from the Genelec, Paola Lenti, BoConcept and Villeroy & Boch collections. The sleek, contemporary spa bathroom, gives great view of the sea and greenery outside. The master bedroom suite is an expensive space which includes a private terrace looking onto the ocean, a functional walk-in wardrobe and a lavish open plan spa bathroom which has no walls anywhere.



There is an open kitchen with a brushed stainless steel island platform which is accompanied by an enclosed kitchen. Careful attention has been paid to the automated lighting which can be changed according to the mood.


The entire home was renovated in 14 months into a sleek residence with two labourers working on it.

This Beautiful Catskills Cabin Was Once A Wood-Panelled Mess


When Amanda Bupp finally found her dream weekend retreat, it had a hole in the floor to the ground below, no heating system, and an animal had been calling the 1065-square-foot cabin home. Basically, it was a fixer-upper dream, and the end of a yearlong search for a place that Bupp could escape her fashion industry job in nearby NYC.

We at 3D Power congratulate Bupp, who had been looking for a "project" to take on. She landed in the upstate New York town of Phoenicia, a small hamlet in the Catskill region of New York State, where she found the home along with a shuttered motel that she and a group of friends later turned into a stunning 20-room hotel called The Graham & Co.

"I was hunting for a weekend getaway for about a year before I came upon this one. I checked diligently every day for new opportunities and jumped on this when I saw it," Bupp told HuffPost Home about how she happened upon her 1950s hunting cabin turned weekend getaway. "I was looking for something to update, a project. It was a little scary at first sight but the potential was definitely there," she said.

New Trends : Sleek Modern Homes Of 2015


In a country with a history and culture like India's, it is always interesting to see how designers and architects bring that context into their modern efforts. The single family home featured in this post was designed by the team at Charged Voids. The residence is located in Mohali, Punjab, India, which is a region experiencing tremendous modern growth at the moment. For this reason, the house was designed to be somewhat universal in its presentation. Many of the homes featured on this blog were designed with specific occupants in mind, but this sleek and beautiful home instead acts as a blank slate for whatever modern family chooses to move in.

Because the home was not sold when building began, the architects wanted to ensure the broadest possible market for the house. This is why the design, from color scheme to building materials, is luxurious but still largely neutral. We at 3D Power think that this is the reason why they chose to adhere to the Indian tenets of Vaastushastra, ideas which dictate building layouts, measurements, arrangements, and other architectural details. While not all Indian families adhere to these ideas, a home that does will be more likely to sell.
