Modern Pooja Room Designs For Small Apartments
In most urban cities, lack of space is a major issue. Therefore, an apartment with a separate dedicated space for a pooja room can be difficult to find. So, does it mean you’d have to skip this very important part of your household completely? Not necessarily. You can simply set up your pooja ‘room’ on top of your wooden cabinet. Or you can custom-design a multi-tiered pooja unit complete with seamless drawers to store pooja essentials. A ‘jaali’ motif backdrop helps beautify your intimate prayer space.
