Homeowner Auneha Shankar concurred.

"A house becomes a home only when we give it a personal touch. It is very fulfilling to get your house made according to your whims and fancies," Shankar maintained.

Homemaker Parul Chaudhary, who has got two rooms in her house custom designed, said: "One room and the drawing room has been done by Shamin Singh, a designer from Lajpat Nagar. The drawing room can seat 25 people and the designing alone cost us Rs.750,000."

Talking about how she accessorized her home, Chaudhary said: "I've accessorized using silk curtains, a grandfather clock and a chandelier which alone cost us Rs.100,000.

"Other accessories we used include candles and paintings, which cost us Rs.70,000 per painting," she said.
