House of Zinc Walls
+ Residential
+ 2500 sq.ft.
+ Mumbai, India
The House Of Zinc Walls is a 4-bedroom 2500 sq. ft. residential interior design project, made up of 4 smaller, twin apartments, for a family of 6 in Mumbai. Varying finishes from simple and labor-intensive brass and teak wood, to machine-produced sophisticated elemental zinc paneling and Italian marble have been used in the project, to create what was specified by the client – a modern-day, ‘Indian’ home set within a straight-lined and minimal aesthetic.
The apartment is dotted with bespoke pieces that were painstakingly detailed and crafted as a response to the functional requirements set out by the clients. This project is characterized by a unique zinc wall paneling system intended to unify the shared living, dining and kitchen areas. Zinc Panels meant originally for exterior cladding were re-appropriated within an interior design context for this purpose.
