ilika Interiors designs homes and workspaces in Model Colony. A planned colony of quiet, tree-shaded streets with a large stock of independent houses and a handful of premium apartment buildings.
Interior work in Model Colony starts with what the building allows. Mature trees mean deep shade — the lighting design matters more here than the colour scheme. Villas on these plots often have courtyards or gardens that the original interiors treated as outside space, which is the biggest missed opportunity.

What interior work costs in Model Colony
A planned colony of quiet, tree-shaded streets with a large stock of independent houses. Villa interiors run ₹70 lakh to ₹1.4 crore for a full house, or ₹38 to ₹70 lakh for the principal ground-floor spaces. Premium apartments land ₹30 to ₹52 lakh.
The line item people underestimate on these plots is the outside. A courtyard or garden treated as an extension of the interior needs the same detailing as a room — levels, drainage, lighting and materials that survive weather — and it is usually excluded from a headline rate.
The work that comes up most in Model Colony
Villas and houses where the courtyard or garden was treated as outside space by the original interiors. Pulling it into the plan is the single largest improvement available on these plots, and it is a design decision rather than a spending decision.
The second pattern is mature trees producing deep shade. The lighting design matters more here than the colour scheme, and a scheme designed for brightness rather than for shade will look wrong at every hour of the day.
Approvals, society rules and site access
Independent houses mean municipal approvals and, for anything touching the envelope, a structural review. Older houses here were built to designs that predate current codes, so assumptions about wall construction should be verified rather than assumed.
The streets are wide and quiet by Pune standards, which makes material access easier than in the core — one of the practical advantages of the area.
How we sequence a project in Model Colony
Twenty-four to thirty weeks for a full villa, with landscape and outdoor work running on a parallel track so the house is not held open waiting for planting. Structural review comes before any plan change.

Interior design in Model Colony — common questions
- Do you design villa interiors in Model Colony?
- Yes — full villa interiors including courtyards, terraces and landscape coordination, planned as one continuous space rather than as inside plus outside.
- Can you work with an architect already appointed?
- Yes. We work alongside architects regularly, taking the interior package while they hold the building design and statutory drawings.
