Monsoon is upon us and with it come the bountiful seasonal quirks we have grown to love and navigate, from gorging on perfectly roasted corn to dealing with frizzy hair. Among the myriad challenges of the rainy season, is making a few changes around the house to adapt to the damp weather. We spoke to top designers at two of Mumbai’s boutique interior design firms to help you get your house in shape for the monsoon season.

Principal Designers and Co-Founders of Quirk Studio, Disha Bhavsar and Shivani Ajmera stated, “There are many ways in which one can transform a residential space to encourage a fresh atmosphere that welcomes the monsoons.”  While Jesal Lodha, Principal Designer at The Little Details added, “It is important to upgrade your home and rainproof it so that you can enjoy this time to the fullest and not spend all your time cleaning the mess. Because it`s all fun and games until your home decor gets affected by the dampness and perils of this season.”
