Set in the Sholinganallur residential area of Chennai, the SIS bungalow is a stately edifice designed in the classical style for a large family of twenty members. Fit for royalty and defined by symmetry, proportion and grandeur, this residence strikes the right balance between - client aspirations, strategic-functional design and exquisite artisanship.
The residence meets ambitious and lavish functional requirements via efficient planning and innovative design. Elevated above the ground level, the residence stands tall. It creates a magnificent sight for the passersby, contrasting the built fabric in the vicinity due to its unique and resplendent architectural language.
Being a frequent traveller to Europe, the client who owns South Indian Shelters (SIS) is heavily inspired by the European classical style of architecture and aspires to have a similar language for his home. Apart from the site context, this became the functional and spatial design driver.
