Depth Perception: New York designer Purvi Padia transforms an ’80s Connecticut home with unique textures and luxury materials

When Purvi Padia’s clients snapped up an 8,000-square foot home in Westport, CT, they gave the Manhattan-based interior designer a massive task. Could she transform this traditional house, decorated in ’80s stalwarts like murals, brass lights and crystal chandeliers, into a fresh, modern home? ” The aesthetic was so far from what they envisioned,” says Padia. “The bones were good but everything inside had to go.”

“All in all, Padia created a living space that would look just at home in Tribeca as in the suburbs of Connecticut.”
