House of Art by Rajiv Saini is a reimagined New Delhi home, filled with art and customised to its owners’ needs
in New Delhi are cases in point. Here, he brought his well-honed expertise to create an interior that is brimming with life and creativity.
'Art has always been integral to all our projects. On most projects, the process of acquiring art begins in parallel with the commission to start design – and we try and acquire enough that will be needed for the project, over the two to three years of the project construction,' Saini explains. 'In this case, since there already was a sizeable collection the client had, it was more about editing from the collection, and planning which works would go where, and be grouped with what else. All our meetings and discussions on the project would eventually gravitate towards this discussion, which wasn’t of much use – as I’m instinctive when it comes to hanging art.
Examples of art and furniture pieces decorating the interior span several decades and include works by Prabhakar Barwe and Arpita Singh in the dining room; a Mrinalini Mukherjee’s hemp sculpture in the living room; a Nilima Sheikh painting on tapestry, suspended in the living room; several Manjit Bawa paintings throughout the home; Bharti Kher’s early work behind the bar; photography by Dayanita Singh; and sculptures, such as A Bala’s white hands.
