Pooja Room with a White and Gold Mandir Unit
About Pooja Room Interiors
Common questions from homeowners.
It is a tree done in white relief with gold leaves scattered across it, set into the back panel of the mandir. It is the first thing your eye goes to, and the gold catches the spotlights above.
Yes. It has two openable shutters with ribbed glass panels, so you can shut them and the light inside still glows through softly. Handy when the mandir sits in an open part of the home like this one.
There are drawers and a cabinet running under the altar platform, so agarbatti, thalis and books stay out of sight. The altar itself is stepped, which gives you a second level for smaller idols.
Not much — it is built into the wall as a single tall unit, so it only takes up the depth of a wardrobe. The arched top is what makes it feel bigger than it actually is.
It is a shaped crown in a soft greige, with a scroll pattern cut through it. It gives the unit a temple silhouette without going fully traditional, which is why it sits fine next to a modern dining setup.
Easily. The white and gold combination is the classic choice for a mandir, but the same shape works in wood tones or an off-white with brass detailing instead of gold.
