Experience modular design and biophilic elements at the Sienna House

The house is perched on a tableland, 1200 ft above sea level, against the backdrop of the Western Ghats. The house uses simple geometry and open spaces to create a sense of openness and transparency, allowing its inhabitants to connect with nature.

The design balances the natural and built spaces with warm, muted walls and reddish-brown Mangalore tiles that blend effortlessly into its backdrop. The house is designed to be an inward-looking sanctuary for a family that loves spending time with each other and hosting loved ones. It strikes a balance between the natural and built spaces.
