TRANQUIL FUSION

Amidst a quaint neighbourhood in Kasaragod, Kerala, the Nooh Residence is conceived as a ‘one-of-kind’ Indo-Portuguese weekend house for a Goan family.

It emerges as a sanctuary of tropical serenity, combining contemporary aesthetics with traditional local influences. This abode is an intended fusion of modern design principles and local sensibilities, coupled with a few Portuguese architectural elements. This creates a living space that radiates warmth, tranquillity, and a quiet sense of luxury. While the house design takes cues from the clients’ Goan roots and their appreciation for Portuguese architecture, the design prioritises a contextually suited response. The nod to traditional elements with a modern, temporal take is the studio’s philosophy, which comes through in the Nooh Residence.

The essence of the Goan Portuguese house lies in its thoughtful division between private and public spaces, ensuring a fine balance between communal areas and intimate retreats.
