From the BHS album: A Chennai apartment gets a colourful makeover

What was the Brief Given to the Team?

Initially, I just wanted to get the full house painted but my wife pointed out that the kitchen needed some rework too. The kitchen cabinets had been through wear and tear. There was some damage to them because of water seepage too. When we spoke to the Beautiful Homes Service, we realised that they could help us upgrade the kitchen too. So this time we opted for a modular kitchen with water-proof and stain-resistant shutters.

How would you Describe the Design Process?

The Beautiful Homes service was very engaging and there were multiple visits by the team, whenever we requested them. We found that Asian Paints provided a one-stop solution for all of our requirements. I was most pleased to have a one point contact with Tharun, the Customer Experience Specialist (CES) assigned to us.

First, a team came over and took all the necessary measurements and made a note of all of our requirements and our budget. We had already done some of the homework and browsed through the Asian Paints website and narrowed down on some of the colours we wanted to use in the home.

My wife and daughter took over the colour selection process from thereon. They wanted to do something unique in the living and dining room areas and the Asian Paints team introduced us to texture walls. After browsing through the catalogues the team brought along, we opted for textured painting for two large walls—one in the living room and one in the dining room. The team offered to show us a mock-up of these textured walls but we didn’t think it was necessary at the time. In hindsight, it would have better if the team insisted and not just offered the 3D visualisation but having said that, we are happy with the end result.

Initially, we were sceptical about having people spend 8-to-10 hours working inside the house.  We requested that the same set of people worked inside the house throughout the project and as promised, the Beautiful Homes Service team made sure that everyone who worked with us was fully vaccinated and followed all the COVID-19 protocols. The whole team as well as my family masked up throughout the day and whenever required, we double masked too.
