How To Choose Pooja Room Colours And Lighting For A Peaceful Pooja Room Interior Design — Suntew Interior Designers
Suntew's Approach in Mangalore
Suntew has operated a dedicated studio in Kankanady, Mangalore since 2020. In that time, our team has completed 80+ projects across Mangalore city and coastal Karnataka — residential and commercial, contemporary apartments and traditional home renovations, new builds and complete redesigns.
This experience has taught us what works in Mangalore specifically. Marine-grade BWR plywood for carcasses (not standard BWR — the humidity demands marine-grade). Zinc-coated or stainless hardware throughout. Anti-fungal primer as the first coat on all painted surfaces. Kitchen designs that account for the specific requirements of Konkani, Tulu, and Bunt household cooking traditions. These are not upsells. They are the minimum required for a Mangalore interior to perform for 15+ years.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average cost of living room interior design in Bangalore?
A basic living room interior — TV unit, false ceiling, and paint — starts at ₹45,000. A complete living room transformation with feature wall, modular sofa area, and designer flooring ranges from ₹80,000 to ₹2 lakh depending on size and materials.
What colour is best for a small living room in Bangalore apartments?
Light neutrals — off-white, greige (grey-beige), or soft sage green — make small living rooms feel larger. Avoid dark colours on all four walls. One accent wall in a deeper tone (navy, forest green, or burnt orange) adds depth without closing the space. Suntew recommends Asian Paints Royale or Berger Silk Breatheasy for Bangalore apartments.
How do I make a small living room look bigger?
Use light colours, mirrors, and vertical storage to create the illusion of space. A wall-mounted TV unit frees up floor space. Suntew also recommends light-coloured 800x800mm tiles laid diagonally, which visually expands the room.
