HOME AND AWAY

Just because we’re currently grounded, it doesn’t mean that we can’t explore

- BARRY RODGERS

While we wait in anticipation to find out when we can travel again, when the time comes, a retreat to the hills or to a beach town will be in order. To help you start preparing for that much-needed post-lockdown holiday, we're inspiring wanderlust through these gorgeous holiday homes.

THE WEEKEND HOME

Location: Wayanad, Kerala

Firm: Humming Tree

First impressions can be rather revealing. And a tour of this 3,700 square-foot (built-up area) holiday home, which sprawls across 10 acres on the hills of Wayanad, Kerala, unfurls an assured mix of east and west. Multiple outdoor spaces act as enlarged window boxes of tropical plants, but also enhance ventilation and natural light. While the house may come with all the trappings of contemporary living, it is rooted in the need for seclusion – the perfect setting for a home away from home.

THE BEACH HOUSE

Location: Anjuna Beach, Goa

Firm: Studio Momo
