SERENE OPULENCE

The vision for this Kerala traditional house project was to provide the client with luxurious space and finishes.

The client wanted a fusion of traditional elements with all the functionalities of a modern house that can accommodate their extended family members too. Elements of traditional Kerala architecture like the shaded veranda and the multi-levelled sloping roofs laid with Mangalore pattern clay tiles add to the charm.

The entrance veranda is dramatized further by the adjacent rain courtyard that houses a Buddhist statue. The installation embodies the nature of the house, which is to be as tranquil and calm as the 'zen philosophy'.

The rain that falls unhindered into the courtyard can be enjoyed from various viewing positions from inside and outside the house.

Voluminous and free flowing

The breezy veranda and illuminated courtyard act as a transition space between the interior and exterior. The interior spaces are voluminous and free-flowing.
