The makeover focused on a sophisticated palette – the centrepiece of the makeover was the installation of vertical fluted wooden panels in a warm, mid-tone oak. These panels added height to Krystle's living room and created a fancy backdrop behind her comfy tufted sofa.

To elevate the festive mood, the new wall featured sleek, integrated LED strips. The warm 'C-shaped' lighting silhouette provided a soft, ambient glow that highlighted the texture of the stone-finish sections adjacent to the wood fluting. Staying true to the actor's love for a 'Parisian' vibe, the space maintained a base of cream and beige.
Krystle's existing white sofa was also accented with textured neutral throws and cushions, bridging the gap between the new statement wall and the rest of the decor. For a festive touch, Krystle added candle and fresh floral arrangements, which popped against the muted background.
Krystle was thrilled with the result
In the video, Krystle spoke about her 'stunning' one-day wall makeover and how this update perfectly complemented her existing decor, which included a massive statement mirror and a sleek, dark-framed sliding door that leads into her dining area. She wrote in her caption, "My living room got a whole new makeover just in time for Diwali. These stunning wall panels... have made the space feel so festive and chic! Do you love it as much as I do?"
More about Krystle's home
Krystle's Mumbai apartment is dominated by creams, beiges, and whites, and is accented by rich wood tones and warm lighting. The living area is designed with an open-concept feel and features a chunky, dark wood centretable that grounds the room.
Adjacent to the living space is the dining area that includes a sleek wooden dining table with mid-century modern style chairs. The large, black-framed mirror wall adds depth and reflects the light from the pendant lamps. High-gloss marble flooring throughout enhances the brightness of the space.
