Pooja space is an indispensable part of any Indian home, big or small. But in modern homes, due to space constraint, it’s almost impossible to make separate provisions for pooja space. However, as we say ‘necessity is the mother of all invention’, our creative designers have figured out ways to accommodate the pooja space even in small homes in very innovative ways. In fact the beauty and elegance of the space will surprise you. Have a look at these serene and pious pooja spaces that will perfectly fit in your small home.

​1. Purely divine

Less is more and less is divine! There is nothing elaborate here. A simple wooden table with marble top and drawers and mirror behind with carved leave motifs hanging from above giving it a temple look. It’s beautiful!

​2. Decorating the corner

In small homes, having pooja room in living room is common. The trick is in making it look so beautiful that it enhances the beauty of the entire space and becomes a part of the décor. Brass lamps, hanging diyas and bells, stone clad corner and niches decorated with statues; it’s enchanting!

3. Marble and wood

Here, a place for pooja has been created in the dining space. It’s simple wooden closet with marble top holding a marble statue. Hanging bells and patterns created by lights and shadow behind the statue looks amazing.

Every house has this challenging space, a niche in the wall. Why not accept the challenge and convert it into a beautiful and serene pooja space for the family. Keep it simple and pure and enjoy the divinity of the space during your daily ritual.
