Your Pinterest décor pins just came to life at the new Studio Palasa located in Koramangala. Helmed by brother-sister duo Prinston and Preine, the flagship store celebrates the siblings’ passion for nature and design, culminating in a green oasis in the midst of bustling Bangalore.
With an aim to transport guests to a mid-city green sanctuary, the space successfully creates a refreshing symphony of textures, colours, and moods that highlight its offerings – planters, home décor items and most recently, furniture. With ‘repurposing’ serving as the core philosophy in the design process, building and material waste were minutely attended to while refurbishing this erstwhile three-decade-old bungalow. At Studio Palasa, you will find that marble floors and mosaic tiles find a new lease of life in the form of limited edition terrazzo planters and old teak wood pieces make for the perfect display shelves.
Stepping on remodeled kadappa stones that serve as outdoor flooring, one is welcomed by a cascading glow of cane lights crafted by artisans of Assam on the inside. The stark, raw concrete flooring and unfinished columns serve as the perfect canvas to display the flourishing greens in the store. A medley of different materials – metal, concrete, glass, brick, and wood lends the studio a warm industrial aesthetic with individual corners highlighting different moods. The space embraces both rusticity and luxury, embodying a tropical getaway with raw and natural finishes.
Studio Palasa has a team of skilled artisans that build and individually hand-paint gorgeous planters of varying sizes and materials that can be found at the store. From large fiberglass floor planters and sleek planters with metal stands to miniature concrete planters and striking spherical metal planters, every home or office can be brought alive by the Studio Palasa collection. In addition to their remarkable planters, the team at Studio Palasa offers garden and space makeovers with a promise to make them green and serene. The brand is also looking at adding to its product line with specially curated indoor and outdoor furniture collections.
In today’s times, there’s nothing more valuable than a joyful space where one can rejuvenate and connect with the outdoors even while being inside. Studio Palasa serves as the perfect inspiration for what that space could look like. All you need to do is walk in and let the magical monsteras and pleasing philodendrons in their beautiful planters engulf you into a state of plant-induced happiness.
