One can also look at a new name which has recently opened its new gallery in India.

British furniture and interiors company Timothy Oulton opens the doors to its first gallery in India. Partnering with Tarun Vadehra Interiors in India’s dynamic capital city New Delhi, the new Timothy Oulton gallery is an explosion for the senses, showcasing the brand’s signature which is relaxed yet has a sophistica­ted aesthetic in a space packed with drama, intrigue and quirky vintage curios.

The opening of the New Delhi gallery marks the next energetic step in Timothy Oulton’s careful expansion. From New York to Hong Kong to London, Timothy Oulton has introduced its daring authentici­ty to now over 35 of the world’s best cities.

Driven by a passion for traditiona­l handcrafts­manship and a deep affection for British heritage, Timothy Oulton is known for its fresh interpreta­tion of classic designs, infusing pieces with a daring, modern twist for a distinctiv­e collection that is inspired by the past but relevant for today. The company’s global yet niche appeal will resonate with New Delhi’s welltravel­led crowd who are seeking quality, world-class furnishing­s.

Occupying two floors of the four-storey Tarun Vadehra Interiors showroom, the new 3600 square-foot gallery is located in a leafy lane off the Defence Colony flyover. Defence Colony is a vibrant and affluent neighbourh­ood, popular among Delhiites as a fashionabl­e lifestyle and shopping destinatio­n. The gallery stands in good company, in close proximity to several upscale designer stores, art galleries, chic boutiques, restaurant­s and bars.

Walking into the new gallery feels like stepping into a curious new world. The romance of past eras and British heritage is brought alive with a daring, modern energy in the storied furniture and home accessorie­s. One can now make oneself at home on warm, buttery leather sofas, run one’s hand along the characterf­ul surfaces of reclaimed wood tables, surrounded by dramatic chandelier­s hanging from rope nooses and champagne buckets filled with fresh red roses.

Tim Oulton says, “New Delhi has this incredible blend of rich heritage with modern vibrancy; it’s that contrast of tradition with innovation that’s also reflected in our designs. New Delhi’s been evolving over recent years. People today live a much more global lifestyle and want to come home to somewhere that inspires them, where they can relax and connect with family and friends. It’s those ideas that are really at the heart of our collection­s.”

Amit Vadehra, of Tarun Vadehra Interiors, talks about the partnershi­p,“Timothy Oulton shares our commitment to outstandin­g quality and fine handcrafts­manship, comparable to the very best in the world. We’re delighted to invite people to come to the New Delhi store and experience something totally different, in both the collection­s themselves and the unique store experience.”

The highlights of Housefull.com are that it offers comprehens­ive, end-to-end furniture solutions for customers of all budgets, ranging from few hundreds to a few thousands.
