The actor’s humble abode in Goa is surrounded by lush greenery and exudes minimalist decor. His home is everything one would expect from the actor who prefers to fly under the radar: distinct, remarkable and very private. 'A glass house in the middle of the forest’ is how Abhay Deol likes to describe his carefully designed Goa retreat in the third episode of Season 5 ‘Asian Paints Where The Heart Is’.

Goa is about sun and the sand, but there’s another face to this place that tourists do not get to see: the forest. Drive away from the sea, and one will find that that’s where the locals live, far from the madding crowds, and nestled in the calming greens of Goa. And that is precisely where Abhay has built a stunning glass house for himself.

A meditative oasis with a rustic vibe, this space is surrounded by lush greenery that follows even when you’re inside the house. Characterized by its simplicity and clean lines, the home has high ceilings and glass windows that ensure that one always feels close to nature.

The rooflines soar high, and there’s a very purposeful stance to this house; Abhay’s vision for this home is clear: clean, sharp, airy, and a structure that brings the forest into the house. Glass walls are all that separates the interior from the exterior, and there’s a sense of openness to the decor that matches this theme: exposed brick and cement surfaces, wooden stairs, and more.

Bold colour makes its appearance: there’s deep blue walls that contrast with the flooring and visiting artists have made their mark in the home with stunning work on the exterior walls. In the end, that’s what stands out about Abhay’s home: its strong ideas brought to life with a clear vision.
