This mural in the living room of a home tucked away into the sleepy environs of the suburbs is an ode to the fearless use of colours. A shoal of fishes that metamorphose into the dancing peacock make this space very lively. It offers a glimpse of colour that is visible from both the levels in the house. Designed by Bimal Mistry Architects, the space has a modern yet homely appeal. Inhabited by three generations, the joint family was rooted in tradition. This space was on the floor that housed two young couples. A mix of modern and traditional, the mural uses elements of nature in an abstract fashion.
