ilika Interiors designs homes and workspaces in Shivajinagar. Administrative and commercial core with a dense residential layer above the shops — busy, central and full of buildings from every decade since the 1960s.
Interior work in Shivajinagar starts with what the building allows. Street noise is constant, which makes glazing and acoustic sealing a higher priority than in the suburbs. Mixed-use buildings often have restricted working hours and shared staircases, so the programme has to respect the neighbours.

What interior work costs in Shivajinagar
The administrative and commercial core, with a dense residential layer above the shops. Pricing is mid-range — ₹16 to ₹30 lakh for a mixed-use apartment — but the constraints add cost in ways that are not visible in a per-square-foot rate: restricted working hours, shared staircases, and glazing upgrades to deal with constant street noise.
A full renovation including services runs ₹20 to ₹36 lakh. On the newer compact towers on redeveloped plots, a standard fit-out lands ₹10 to ₹20 lakh.
The work that comes up most in Shivajinagar
Buildings from every decade since the 1960s, which makes the survey the deciding document. Mixed-use buildings add a dimension most residential projects do not have: the ground floor is trading while the first floor is being demolished, and the staircase is shared.
Space is tight in every direction. Every design decision here is a storage or circulation trade-off, and there is rarely room for a decorative gesture that does not also store something.
Approvals, society rules and site access
Working hours are restricted because of the commercial tenants below, and shared staircases cannot be contaminated with construction dust. We use dust barriers, negative-pressure extraction during demolition, and a daily clean-down as standard.
Any change that affects the commercial frontage or the building envelope needs the landlord and often the municipal authority in the loop, not just the society.
How we sequence a project in Shivajinagar
Fourteen to eighteen weeks, with noisy work pushed into permitted windows. Demolition is compressed into the shortest possible block because it is the phase that disrupts the building most.

Interior design in Shivajinagar — common questions
- Do you work in mixed-use buildings in Shivajinagar?
- Yes. We plan deliveries and noisy work around the commercial tenants below and the society's rules, and use dust barriers because shared staircases cannot be contaminated.
- How do you handle street noise?
- Secondary glazing or upgraded seals on the road-facing windows, solid-core internal doors, and acoustic treatment in the room that takes the most noise.
