Arete Culture

Arête Culture has once again pulled out their magic wand and made our new apartment a truly warm and welcoming home. With their attention to details, new life has been given to our existing decoration items and by adding just a few new touches here and there, Caroline and Nirvi transformed our apartment into a place where it feels good to be.

We are over the moon, beyond thrilled with our home transformation thanks to the wonderful Arete Culture team. They transformed our condo in a chic and polished space. Caroline and her team took the effort to learn our preferences and find out what we love. They had suggestions on ways to incorporate our family and heritage pieces into our space in fresh and modern ways. We especially appreciate Arete’s ability to be inventive on ways to make our space both beautiful and functional to really work with our family oriented lifestyle. The process was professional, effortless and most of all fun. We could not be happier!

Very expert IDs who took the time to explain things to us and address our queries. Totally transformed our place into a classy and inviting family home! Carol and Nirvi are a power combo. Many thanks!

We were delighted with the service and the finished look from the Arete team - our apartment is transformed! Would definitely recommend!

Jeannette and Carol are absolute masters of their craft! Their vision, resourcefulness, confidence and efficiency is unparalleled. This is our first home and we were extremely protective of it and had really high expectations - which they surprisingly exceeded! The furniture and big pieces they helped us curate was already impressive and came together beautifully but the Makeover Day is hands down the best experience for any homeowner! To see everything tie together beautifully and elegantly - its an indescribable feeling! I would recommend Arete Culture without any reservation for a fuss-free, well-organised and truly magical process!

Carol and Insha make redecorating a breeze. Their professionalism, excellent taste and gentle yet firm guidance gave us results which exceeded our expectations and made such a difference to your home. This is the second time we have worked with Arete and I would highly recommend them.

No regrets engaging Arete Culture ( AC) in styling my humble abode ! Nirvi - AC senior stylists has been most patient & understanding working on our needs & requirements! So is not just another project for styling for but a journey of mutual respect , giving room for each other & ending up being friends , forming a relationship that was a great bonus & rewards for us ! This process is so needed in creating a unique individual home for oneself! Needless to say I am happy with the comfortable & lovely home they have created for us ! Though AC is pricy but their styling skills coupled with beautiful soft finishing is just magical in transforming any area ! To me is worth it for my emotion, spiritual, physical & mental well being ! Thank you Ac, Nirvi & Caroline! With lots of love ❤️ ending this unprecedented year of COVID-19 2021!

We engaged Arete for a makeover of our living and dining area few months back. Carol and Nirvi did a fantastic job of transforming our home with a completely different look and feel. They were very patient and understanding in working around our requirements to have an aesthetically pleasing yet kid friendly home. Also they were very mindful about using/ re purposing our existing pieces where possible and being conscious of our budget. They also have a great selection of their own furniture and furnishing items which allows more timely delivery options. The makeover project though unfortunately timed during the enhanced measures/ group size of 2, was still managed and delivered within our timelines. Would highly recommend their services for home makeovers.

Carol and Insha from Arete exceeded our expectations. The transformation of our apartment has been fantastic and we can’t believe it’s the same apartment. The transformation has not just improved the aesthetics, but has created much more usable space. We were offered multiple choices for furniture, lighting and soft furnishings to choose from. On the day of the makeover, they literally brought in a truck full of stuff to our apartment - many options were laid out for us to pick from. Most importantly, Carol and Insha are very passionate and committed to their work !

What can I say…professional, friendly, patient and, well, simply wonderful! Caroline and Laura have helped make our home just what I wished it could be, a serene, elegant, comfortable and timeless home. I really lacked confidence and they nurtured me, creating not just a ‘set, off the rail’ piece but a bespoke one that fully incorporated my loves, some pieces that I have had for over 20 years & some newly collected even during the process. A seamless mix of antiques and more modern items. They also helped overcome my budget conscious husband’s concerns about interior designers (not an easy task). With their instinctive eye and attention to detail they have indeed exceeded our expectations & we are looking to them to help us with the master bedroom now too. I can wholeheartedly recommend them.

We were looking for a "1-stop shop" solution to decorate our office showroom based on our conceptual ideas. Arete Culture's team is able to provide such and we were impressed by their overall made-over ad efficiency when the project is completed in a short space of time especially during the pandemic. Rave reviews from our internal colleagues when asked for their comments. Well done!

Thank you Arete Culture. What a wonderful experience. The end result was more than we could have ever expected. Our renovation plan to have everything light and white needed some special touches to make our home more inviting and less austere. The new look provides a relaxed feeling and is perfectly balanced with the soft furnishings and furniture recommended. Laura was fantastic. She provided options without us feeling pressured and fortunately helped guide us when we couldn't make a decision. Appreciate your dedication Laura and Caroline.
