One wall has been specially dedicated to the many leaders who played a role in shaping India. “It is called the wall of wisdom,” said Sanskruti to The Mashable India. Handicrafts dominate every room of the house, a reflection of her mother’s lifelong work with artisans. “My mother has been working with artisans in the field of handicrafts for the last 25 years. I have grown up around them. Every single thing in this house is handmade,” she shared. “Our house is made for conscious living. It is completely eco-friendly.

“My mother has been working with artisans in the field of handicrafts for the last 25 years. I have grown up around them. Every single thing in this house is handmade,” she shared.
“Our house is made for conscious living. It is completely eco-friendly. We do rainwater harvesting, use solar panels for electricity and follow practices that help us coexist with nature,” Sanskruti said.
Even the washrooms have been thoughtfully designed. Each has its own colour theme, motivational quote and a mini library. Explaining the idea, Sanskruti Jayana said, “My grandfather was a Padma Shri awardee in the field of sanitation. He was popularly known as ‘Mr Toilet.'”
The house also features an open kitchen with an adjoining dining area that seamlessly connects to an outdoor seating space, making it ideal for enjoying the monsoon and pleasant weather.
Beyond that is an outdoor kitchen where the family hosts gatherings, cooks together and enjoys bonfires.
“We even have a pizza oven here, so we make pizzas as a family,” she added.
One of the most unique features of the property is the “Gratitude Walk”—a specially designed pathway that encourages self-reflection. Along the trail are inscriptions expressing gratitude towards nature, the five elements, animals and life itself, inviting visitors to pause and appreciate the world around them.
