Its finally pouring cats and dogs in Bombay & its raining home tours on my blog. And this ones long due. Ayan Ghosh, one of my readers sent me pictures of his beautiful homes across countries quite a long time back & it is only now that I have gotten around to posting them. What caught my eye was how the home was a testimony of the family's love for books. The Ghosh's have a beautiful collection of antique furniture that travels with them, so keep your eyes peeled for the detailing.

This is what Ayan says about his home/s: "We spent a decade living in South East Asia and travelling to a number of countries; and our home, which my wife and I share with our 3 year old son, my parents and uncle, definitely displays traces of our sojourns. The other point that distinguishes our home - I think - is that we have been constantly adapting, and have now integrated the furniture of three generations and households (my grandparents, parents and ourselves) in to a flat"

What do I say, each piece, whether it is the mirror, the dining table or the cubboard, is a piece of art.

That screen behind the sofa is such a neat piece of craftmanship.

Books and cds must be the most insightful form of decor, it speaks about you and your tastes like nothing else.

I love the way the ceramic collection has been dispalyed to perfection in their different homes.

All the photographs have been sent to me in lots by Ayan Ghosh.
