Room-by-room 3BHK planning

A 3BHK gives you more rooms and more opportunity to design each space for a specific purpose. Here is how Homeli approaches every space in a Chennai 3BHK to create a cohesive, functional home.

🛋 Living Room

Usually 200–280 sqft. The larger scale of a 3BHK living room unlocks a full feature TV wall, statement false ceiling design and a separate seating zone alongside the main sofa arrangement. A bigger space to make a bigger impression.

🍳 Kitchen

Typically 80–110 sqft with an L-shaped layout. At this size a large chimney, tall storage units, an integrated microwave column and a breakfast counter all become possible without feeling cramped.

🛏 Master Bedroom

160–220 sqft. A full-wall wardrobe, dedicated dressing corner, walk-in possibility and a premium feature wall behind the bed. Master bedrooms in 3BHKs can genuinely feel like a hotel suite with the right design.

🏠 Bedroom 2

120–150 sqft. Wardrobe with integrated study table — ideal as a kids' room or a guest bedroom. Bunk bed provision and under-bed storage make this room work hard for growing families.

💼 Bedroom 3

100–130 sqft. Often designed as a home office or single guest room. A wardrobe with a Murphy bed or a loft bed frees up floor space during the day. Also increasingly used as a nursery.

🪑 Dining Room

Separate dining in larger 3BHKs, 80–120 sqft. A pendant light above the dining table, a crockery unit and a feature wall behind the seating area complete the space with elegance.

🪔 Pooja Room

Many Chennai 3BHKs include a dedicated pooja room. Marble cladding or white wood with gold hardware, built-in shelves for idols, a small bell niche and a warm LED strip inside the unit create a serene space.

🚿 Toilets

Typically 2–3 toilets in a 3BHK. The master toilet can be upgraded with a rain shower, large-format tiles and a wall-hung vanity. Common toilets keep it clean and functional.

Prioritising scope in a 3BHK

A 3BHK has more rooms — which means more decisions about where to invest and where to keep it simple. Here is how experienced Homeli designers advise clients to prioritise.

1
Kitchen + all 3 wardrobes — non-negotiable These are used every single day. Skimping on kitchen quality or wardrobe internal fitments creates daily frustration. Budget for marine ply carcass and soft-close hardware at minimum across all three bedrooms.
2
Master bedroom is the highest lifestyle ROI Your master bedroom is where you begin and end every day. A premium wardrobe, cove lighting, blackout curtains and a well-designed headboard wall make a dramatic quality-of-life difference worth investing in.
3
Open living and dining design creates a sense of space In a 3BHK, a cohesive open plan for living and dining — with a continuous false ceiling, consistent flooring and a unified colour palette — makes the home feel significantly larger and more designed than treating them as separate rooms.
4
Pooja room — do it properly or not at all A half-done pooja unit with cheap material looks worse than no unit. If budget is tight, skip it in phase 1 and plan it properly in phase 2 with marble cladding, a proper wooden frame and good lighting inside the unit.

Practical vs premium: two 3BHK approaches

There is no single right answer for a 3BHK interior — it depends on how you live, how long you plan to stay and what brings you joy. Here are two honest approaches.

Practical 3BHK
₹12L–₹18L
  • All modular work — kitchen + 3 wardrobes
  • Living room TV unit with back panel
  • False ceiling throughout with standard cove
  • Full-home painting (premium emulsion)
  • Clean, durable aesthetic — designed to last 15+ years
  • Laminate shutters throughout, BLUM or Hettich hardware
  • Functional, beautiful and budget-conscious
Premium 3BHK
₹18L–₹30L+
  • Custom millwork — wood veneer or lacquer finishes
  • Premium materials: stone countertops, glass shutters
  • Smart lighting system with scene control
  • Master walk-in wardrobe with island dresser
  • Feature walls in master bedroom and living room
  • Imported hardware (Hettich Sensys, BLUM Legrabox)
  • Designer pooja unit with marble cladding
Both approaches use the same Homeli quality standards for structural work — marine ply, ISI-certified materials and a 10-year warranty. The difference is the finish and detail level, not the underlying quality.

Frequently asked questions

How much does 3BHK interior design cost in Chennai?
A practical full 3BHK interior in Chennai — covering the modular kitchen, wardrobes in all three bedrooms, living room TV wall, false ceiling throughout and full-home painting — typically costs ₹12L–₹18L. A premium scope with custom veneer finishes, smart lighting and a master walk-in wardrobe can reach ₹25L–₹30L+. The exact cost depends on carpet area (usually 1,200–1,600 sqft for Chennai 3BHKs), materials and apartment location. Homeli provides a fixed price quote before any work begins.
How long does 3BHK interior work take?
A full 3BHK interior typically takes 50–60 days from site handover. The extra rooms add time versus a 2BHK, primarily in the civil work and installation phases. Homeli's 45-day delivery commitment applies to streamlined scopes; full premium 3BHKs with custom work are committed at 55–60 days in writing. Design and material ordering happens in parallel during weeks 1–2, so no time is wasted at the start.
Can I phase my 3BHK interior work?
Yes, phasing works well for 3BHKs. The recommended phase 1 is kitchen + master bedroom + living room (the daily-use rooms). Phase 2 can include bedrooms 2 and 3, the dining area, pooja unit and any balance false ceiling work. Homeli designs the complete home in phase 1 so design continuity is guaranteed in phase 2, regardless of when you return. Most clients complete phase 2 within 6–18 months.
What is included in a full 3BHK interior package?
A full 3BHK package from Homeli includes: full 3D design and room-by-room layout planning, modular kitchen (chimney, countertop, soft-close hardware, appliance provision), wardrobes in all three bedrooms with internal fitments, living room TV unit with back panel, false ceiling throughout with lighting, full-home painting, dining area crockery unit, foyer unit, all civil work (electrical point shifting, wall prep, carpentry groundwork), dedicated project manager and site supervisor. All modular work includes a 10-year warranty. Pooja unit, toilet renovations, flooring and loose furniture are available as add-ons.
