Serenity within abundance is a book about Shruti and Malav Desai's home in Ahmedabad, designed by renowned architect Ar. Hiren Patel. The inspiration for the house was the couple's experience of their stay at Tandjung Sari, a luxury resort in Bali, Indonesia.
This book was also presented as a coffee table book exhibit in the RAW Collaborative exhibition at ATMA, Ahmedabad in early 2020.

The tranquil house
What if, these fleeting moments of glory could be captured and given a suitable receptacle so that we could live within them forever? This is the story of that moment of bliss - the experience of it, the quest of it, the acquisition of it. The making of the ephemeral into the tangible.  This is the story of Tandjung Sari, the Tranquil house - where one finds serenity within abundance.
