This article aims to explain the need for a concept for a modern house design as well as mention the ways it can be included in your home.
When we idealize our perfect home, we contemplate numerous aspects...French or sliding windows, opulent chandeliers or contemporary hanging lights, a massive hall or an intimate living room, a rustic wooden or a colonial four-poster bed? It's almost as if we can visualize the entire mood board with the inception of the dream itself! However, one facet that we often choose or unintentionally forget is the Concept of Design.
To a client, a concept might sound like a speculative thought, which is either immensely difficult to execute or costs a fortune. The reality, nonetheless, might be different and much more promising. Thus this blog by Chaukor Design Studio, interior designers in Greater Noida, aims at clarifying the phrase in conjecture; ‘Concept Design for a Home’.
What is a Concept ?
Theoretically, a concept in design is an idea that forms the basis of any element, decision, or creative feature; on which the entire house is schematized and designed. Its realization and perception are variable and can be dynamically altered as per the innovative psych of the architect or client. It is often confused with ‘the Theme of a space’; but it should be noted that a ‘Theme’ is majorly mirrored to every detail of a design, including the furniture, decor, color, and material palette, whereas the former term implies to a more subtle representation of an idea, expressed with the aid of planning or aesthetics.
For instance, in a recently completed modern house design project by Chaukor Design Studio, called the SubhRashi Kutir in Greater Noida; we chose to portray the concept of ‘Curiosity’. The same was not included as a part of every accentuating component, but rather as understated hints throughout the residence. Therefore, it can be safely concluded that the concept used to create a simple modern house design, can be brought to reality in varied formats: both profound or exuberant.
Why choose a Concept for a Home Design?
While there may be arguments over the need for a concept for the interiors of a home, as one of the esteemed interior designers in Greater Noida, we choose to ‘fact check’ the pros and cons of a Concept before opting for one. A well-chosen concept has the potential to not only draw a personal connection with the residents of the house but also showcase the innate and interesting personality that each member possesses. Being a decision at the rudimentary level of design, this core concept also intertwines with each stage of the implementation process; thus marrying every space of your modern small house design with each other.
Additionally, the facets supplemented along the journey can also be used to amplify the volume, instill vibrancy or simply create a more livable ambiance for the residents. It proves to be the fine connection that converts your ‘small modern villa design’ into ‘a laudable home for a family.
How to inculcate a Concept ?
The amusing part of choosing a concept is that the ways in which it can be fashioned are unlimited! You can choose to have the idea expressed through your modern luxury house plans and layout, or it can be evidently presented through perceivable aesthetics. Including nature and indoor plants can be a way of manifesting your chosen concept of ‘Greenery’, while selecting a particular color that represents the melody of each family member can easily signify a ‘Chromatic’ ideology. In a nutshell, the sky's the limit where the personalization of a concept for your simple modern house design is involved. However, there are a few broad segregations that can be referred to, for the aid of concept execution.

Including a concept as an integral segment of the layout, is one way of going about it. Since planning is the origin of any design, opting for a concept right at the crux does have its advantages. In such a scenario, the idea can be showcased through form-based planning or asserted through the flow of spaces. Another approach could be to include interior elements that amplify the artful aspect of your simple modern house design as well as comply with the chosen concept. For the project SubhRashi Kutir stated above, we utilized humane figurines throughout the design, to only hint at the concept of Curiosity; but also as an astute tool for guiding an individual to the forthcoming spaces.
To conclude…
Commissioning the design of your home is a very personal endeavor, and employing a concept will definitely aid you in this process. Owing to the vast number of ideas and innovations that are available in the built world today, executing a complex or an elementary concept is not a humongous task anymore. You can choose to take assistance from any capable architect or interior designer, who will definitely guide you in strategizing the feasibility of a concept you have in your mind or create one that suits you the best. You can experiment with it or abide by simple principles and techniques to achieve the best design, but without a shadow of a doubt, it will result in the designing of a space you can proudly call your Home!
