What makes an interior designer a luxury interior designer?

Not the fee. A luxury studio resolves proportion before decoration, names every material by brand and grade, builds joinery on a factory line rather than on the floor of your flat, and stays accountable through execution to a styled handover. Ask any studio to show you the quote line for a hinge; the answer tells you which kind you are talking to.

How much do luxury interior designers charge in Bangalore?

Every Élara home is designed and priced individually, because bespoke interiors depend on scope, materials, and craftsmanship rather than a rate card. Luxury interiors with Élara start from ₹11.99L; after an initial consultation we prepare a detailed, itemised proposal for your specific home, with every material named by brand, grade and warranty.

Do you design apartments, or only villas and penthouses?

All three. A premium apartment deserves the same detailing as a villa — intelligent storage, calm palettes, layered light — worked around what cannot move: builder plumbing, structural walls, and the lift dimensions the joinery has to pass through.

Is the initial design really free?

Send a floor plan and a short brief. Within 7 days you receive photorealistic views of three of your rooms, a material board and an indicative range — complimentary, and without obligation. Full design begins with a design agreement.

Which parts of Bangalore do you work in?

Across the city — Whitefield, Sarjapur Road, Indiranagar, Koramangala, HSR Layout, Hebbal, Yelahanka, Sadashivanagar, Jayanagar, JP Nagar, Bannerghatta Road and Devanahalli — and for NRI homeowners planning a Bangalore residence from abroad.

What Luxury Means Here

Five things you can check, not five adjectives

Every studio in the city calls itself luxury. These are the things that make a home one, and each is something you can verify at delivery.

Proportion Before Decoration
Ceiling heights, door widths, the distance between a sofa and the wall behind it — resolved on the plan, because no finish rescues a room whose bones are wrong.
Materials Named by Grade
Every line of the quote carries a brand, a grade and a warranty: the ply standard, the shutter board, the hinge maker, the stone lot. Luxury that cannot be named is marketing.
Joinery from a Factory Line
Wardrobes, kitchens and panelling cut and finished on a German-standard line and assembled on site, so a shutter gap is the same in the last room as the first.
Light in Three Layers
Ambient, task and accent light planned with the electrical drawings — dimming, circuits and colour temperature decided before the false ceiling closes.
The Last Five Percent
Art, textiles, planting and the objects that make a room inhabited rather than staged, placed before the keys change hands.
