Mumbai's a busy place, so you can understand why someone might want to rise above the hubbub of street-level and enjoy a little sanctuary in the sky. Prevailing over the banality of a celebrity house, where bling and glamour reeks off everything, Alan Abraham of Abraham John Architects has built his brother, Bollywood actor John Abraham a luxurious penthouse in Mumbai. Breaking the 'stereotype' of a larger than life celebrity house, the Villa in the Sky was designed in the theme of minimalism beset with rustic hardwood beams and verdant plant life to create a space that's at once both modern and aged. While beautiful inside, the highlight of the property is surely the view, which stretches from the balcony all the way to the Arabian sea – a whole world away from the busy city below.

The master bathroom and walk-in wardrobe connect to a private terrace. I would kill to own this place!

They've completely blurred the line between landscape and architecture here. I never thought making nature and comfort join hands would be this beautiful!
