The intricate ceiling is adorned with a stunning chandelier. The muted color scheme, marble floors, traditional furniture, classic artwork, and state-of-the-art security are features seen throughout the two-story Mediterranean abode.

This isn’t a photo of a swanky hotel lobby. It’s actually one room in what the BBC reports to be the world’s most expensive home, priced at over $1 billion. The residence of India’s wealthiest man, Mukesh Ambani, is named Antilia after a mythical island in the Atlantic Ocean. The recently built, 27-story, 400,000-square-foot house is located in Mumbai, India. Ambani’s wife, Nita, describes it as a, “modern home with Indian heart.” She says the interior design scheme is centered around the lotus and the sun and the house is decorated with rare wood, mother-of-pearl, marble, and crystal from Indian artisans. Could you imagine entertaining in this enormous space?

It contains French antiques, 18 karat gold door knobs, a $30,000 chandelier custom made in Florence, an iron railing designed to look like the famous mirrored railing found in the Chanel store on Paris’s Rue de Cambon, and a $10,000 area rug sporting the brand’s logo.
