Harper's Bazaar India

Designing a home has got to be one of the most fulfilling projects. From prospecting furniture and accessories to determining what goes where, you’re rewarded with a beautiful home that reflects the best of you. But wait—you’ve set your bedroom and living room, and almost every other room, but conveniently forgotten the corners! And frankly speaking, almost nothing ever seems good enough to spruce them up.
