One of the most appreciated superstars in the South Indian industry is Allu Arjun. He is the late actor-comedian Allu Ramalingaiah’s grandson. Being the nephew of Chiranjeevi, a legend in the Telugu film business, Allu Arjun has made a place for himself in the South Indian industry and is all set to conquer the world with his exceptional performances.

Allu Arjun’s House

We don’t typically equate celebrity residences with minimalism. We anticipate that they will live lives filled with glitter and glitz. But, Allu Arjun’s home is a masterpiece in itself. It denotes the simple and humble person that he is. The love he gets from the people must make him feel like a superstar but when you see his house it imparts a feeling of calm, tranquility and peace.

  • In a beautifully landscaped property in the Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, we see a minimal white rectangular box that is how Allu Arjun’s home catches our eye. Aamir and Hameeda Associates designed the structure, which has a floor area of 8,000 square feet and is situated on a 2-acre piece of ground. The designers say that Allu Arjun wanted windows significantly, but they persuaded him to exclude them in favor of a more enigmatic front facade aspect than a glass strip would provide. Every room of the house exhibits the couple’s apparent enjoyment of basic, clean, and distinctively designed interiors.

  • White and other neutral hues predominate throughout Allu Arjun’s living room, keeping the space lively and never dull. The room’s linear furniture gives it a very clean, uniform appearance. A slight contrast is created in the design by the textures employed. The wall paneling gives it a very raw and untouched look, yet the white walls give it a very clean appearance. Though, the addition of a yellow bike catches the eye and brings a pop of color to the neutral style’s living area.

  • The dining room and kitchen are opulent. The entire design here maintains minimalism. The empty white walls serve as a blank canvas for all the installation artwork and murals. The seamless appearance of the ceiling light is an intriguing element, and the ceiling is kept clean. To provide consistency throughout the entire public area, the counters coordinate with the paneling in the living room. Through large glass fenestrations that let in lots of natural light and give the impression that the area is larger, the public space looks out into the open field. Linear lines are often valued while selecting furniture, shelves, or chairs.

  • The complete white marvel is an experience in itself. The outdoor areas of the house have a large swimming pool which is connected with the indoor public area. The material selection and design are kept very simple throughout the house. The lawn and pool of this stunning property might be a great spot where the family enjoys precious time together. The estate has a lovely backyard with landscaping, colorful foliage, and a variety of potted plants..

  • Natural light is a must in a home. Natural light enhances a room’s color and gives it a bigger, airier sense. Warm air from natural light encourages ventilation, which keeps the air fresh and lessens the chance that mold may grow in confined areas. Generally speaking, a room feels much cozier and more inviting when there is more natural light and less artificial light. Natural lighting is still a major trend in design. A seamless look is achieved here by the flooring, the counter being of the same design.

  •  The same space has its beauty when there is an amalgamation of artificial and natural light. This warm, yellowish light is a common feature of conventional incandescent lights. Since it can promote emotions of relaxation, you’ll frequently see it in places like bedrooms and living rooms. Low-temperature lighting can make you feel more at ease. When warm colors are present in a room, we frequently see objects’ hues differently than we would in natural light. The furniture and other décor pieces are carefully packed to minimize unpleasant surprises because the room is lighted with primarily warm light.

  • The passageway which connects the public area to the private area is a clean corridor. The dark grey tiles instill a sense of direction to the space and take the viewer to the main focal point. The entire house’s connecting hallway and all of the lovely corners are quite affluent and elegant.

  •  The designer from Aamir and Hameeda Associates says, “The exteriors and the ledges  in the house have running LED stripes that can be changed into different colors.” This in itself is a very exciting feature of the house. The design is kept minimal but the technology and techniques with the pattern and textures are kept chic and modern.

  • The private areas of the house are an extension of the public areas. The texture that you encounter in public areas is seen on the flooring and bed design as well. For visual impact, the bedroom’s ceiling has been left open..

  • Natural plants surround the bathing area in the bathroom, which ensures a beautiful bathing experience with the skylight above. The bathtub is level with the flooring. The enormous skylight provides constant natural lighting. In the opposite bathroom corner, there is a toilet and a sink.

Conclusion

Allu Arjun’s house is a very modern design house that sets a very humble, cohesive, and calm atmosphere, quite contrary to the on-screen persona of the actor. To come home to a serene place like this is a feeling of comfort and warmth. The blockbuster star of the movie Pushpa seems to have an interesting taste in architecture and design.
