Omung explained that the design intentionally brings back a nostalgic, back-to-basics feel while creating a lively yet secluded space for contestants to live for months

Omung Kumar and Bigg Boss 19 house
Every season, the Bigg Boss house takes on a personality of its own, defining the experience of its competitors. For Season 19, the design is inspired by the spirit of wild camping, evoking the raw simplicity of a cabin in the woods while capturing the idea of a location where every voice matters and every choice is apparent. Wooden textures anchor the house in history, while vibrant colours reflect the range and unpredictability of the ideas that will be expressed inside. In an exclusive chat with Designer Omung Kumar, he shared his vision behind the new Bigg Boss house.
Omung detailed on the new design for the house, "This year, we thought, let`s take all these 16, 17 contestants and take them away, far away. It`s not a vacation. It`s like a remote place. So into the wild, into the woods. Like a cabin, and over there, the animals are there. So this time, the animals have a dual personality. Like hybrids, is what we said. Like, there`s a huge rooster in the middle of the living room, but it has horns on it. So there are two animals put together. Which one are you? Yet the theme of the whole show is democracy, of voting. A person like me is doing more than what the Bigg Boss generally does. Within the log house, the colourful, beautiful log house, we`ve added a room which transforms you into a boardroom. Which becomes like the big table is there on the floor, and you sit on the opposite side, and you keep debating and, you know, trying to vote out or whatever the creative will, you know, unfold as and when Bigg Boss tells them what to do. So that`s a different place altogether. It`s a complete takeoff. It`s a completely different room from what the log house is. Log house generally becomes wood, you know, it`s like a dark, depressing wood. So we said, let`s add in colours. Everywhere you see is basically vibrant colours because here they are going to stay for about three to four months. So it should not be depressing for them. Yet it is a place that you cut off from the world. So that`s what we wanted to transform them into. And that`s why the theme for this year was a log house."
