Raheja Reflections Club, at Mumbai, by GA Design, Sachin Goregaoker 1Reflections Club is the center piece of this lovely complex Raheja Reflections at Borivali in Mumbai.

The stylishly designed reception area in Grey Italian marble floor and veneer paneled wall looks warm and inviting. The ceiling is interesting with criss-cross cuts for indirect lighting. The ground floor accommodates a huge gymnasium overlooking the swimming pool, along with spa and shower facilities for men & women separately and a party hall. The design of the gymnasium is modern and funky, targeting young enthusiasts with a grey & orange colour palette. The mirror design in a rectangular frame with rounded corners is complemented by similar shapes in the ceiling with indirect lighting and a deep rust colour. The party hall which is perfect for any social event, has huge sliding doors which open into the lush green lawns. One of the walls forms an interesting backdrop with inserts of mirror panels of differing sizes. The ceiling complements this visual with panel lights of differing sizes. The spa & shower areas have colours that are unanticipated – the gents’ with blue tiles and grey marble and ladies’ with yellow tiles and grey marble. Both areas have a lovely mural in black & white mosaic tiles in the Jacuzzi sections, exuding energy and positivity.

The first floor houses a large multipurpose hall which opens up to a terrace garden, and a games area on the other side which include carom, chess, table tennis & pool. The interiors of the indoor games area again is lively and spunky to create the energy required to be tuned in to games. An engaging feature of the games area is a visual partition which is a white laser cut screen in a geometric design.

The club house design is stylish and cheerful with a comfortable vibe, a strong colour palette and attention to detail playing an important role right through the design process.

Wall As a Public Space
“To read public space only as a spatial condition, as a matter of square footage, zoning, or physical access, is to miss half the picture.”
—Reshma Esther Thomas

Reshma Esther Thomas examines how Hyderabad’s flyover pillars, painted with Cheriyal-style murals under the GHMC’s ‘City Art Scape’ initiative, reveal the paradox of managed public space. What appears to be beautification is actually cultural assertion in the wake of the 2014 bifurcation, bureaucratising a surface that once belonged to those without institutional power.

The Map That Was Never Yours
“If publicness is reduced to what is legally accessible, then these landscapes were never public to begin with.”
—V.V. Kusum Priya

As part of our editorial: What makes a space public?, V.V. Kusum Priya argues that Section 39A of Goa’s 2024 Town and Country Planning Act this isn’t just a legal issue, and that it’s the erosion of an unrecognised but collectively sustained commons, and a question of what “public” really means and who benefits from the legislations surrounding this.

“Appropriation of public spaces is the genesis of political movements, of ideological apparatus, and of endangering the city’s multi-dimensional fabric.”

She reveals how the transactional activities democratise ownership of these spaces, while the political and religious appropriation increasingly displaces this organic vitality, creating exclusion and anxiety. This shrinking of inclusive public space threatens urban social fabric, yet remains largely absent from city planning conversations, making it a far deeper crisis than mere encroachment.

Sen Kapadia


“… people like Sen [Kapadia] don’t really leave. They become the questions we continue to ask.”
—A Tribute by Nuru Karim

Nuru Karim reflects on his relationship with Sen Kapadia through three transformative “states of being”—as a student, as a studio colleague, and as an independent professional. To capture Sen’s essence, Karim draws on three powerful metaphors: a mountain (commanding yet silent), a banyan tree (generous and sheltering), and a river (unseen yet ever-present). Together, these images paint a portrait of a man whose quiet depth left an indelible mark on all who encountered him.
