Tucked away in the leafy lanes of Juhu, Mumbai, The Urban Retreat is a 900 sq?ft urban-rustic haven that marries the essence of traditional Indian craftsmanship with a contemporary spatial approach. Conceptualised as a serene escape within the city, this apartment is a celebration of textures, heritage, and soulful details.

The flooring, finished in warm Jaisalmer stone, is intricately inlaid with hand-cut brass frangipani motifs, setting a meditative tone throughout the space. Sculpted wall niches, antique Parsi-style wooden seating, and handpicked vintage accessories further enhance the narrative of quiet luxury.

Soft, earthy tones and layered materials offer a visual rhythm, while the spatial planning maximises openness and cross-ventilation. Every corner of this home is a thoughtful response to its owner's desire for comfort, nostalgia, and subtle opulence — making The Urban Retreat a true sanctuary in the city’s western core.
