Home Decor Maximalist – P.Sunita
Preethi: I was awestruck when I discovered Sunita’s home on Instagram. It is an Indian maximalist dream come true. I can stare at these images of her home all day and write a ten-page essay on why I love it so much. The colors, the collection of brass vessels and the artifacts, the plants, and...
The Indian Maximalist Home Tours
I started collecting art, home decor, furniture, and accessories early in my 20’s. Piece by piece, things came together almost over 2 decades. Things I found, things I saved from my parent’s home, things I upcycled, DIY’s, etc. And I continue to build and make changes. It’s a constant work in progress. Creating a curated...

Spaces I have lived in – Two
