Mughal
Mughal interior design is a regal and opulent style originating from the 16th-19th century Mughal Empire, characterized by a harmonious fusion of Islamic, Persian, and Indian influences. It is defined by structural grandeur featuring bulbous domes, symmetrical layouts, and signature multifoil arches, alongside decorative elements like intricate jali (lattice) screens and pietra dura (stone inlay). The aesthetic utilizes a sumptuous color palette of jewel tones—emerald, ruby, and sapphire—set against neutral marble or sandstone, creating spaces that emphasize mathematical precision, bilateral symmetry, and luxurious layering through embroidered textiles and carved woodwork.
