At last we saw a contemporary arch in Kerala. I really appreciate the architect. But better if a little more minimalist. I hate the traditional Kerala modes.

looks like the house is well ventilated…good to see that at some places people still design like that

Great job! Considering the context & culture, Its quite revolutionary.
Only comment on the interior – the colours & the amountof light are great, but more use of earthy colours which typically relates to the context could make it a little more homely. The high gloss – light coloured granite floor & bright walls gives it a ‘techie’ feel. Simillarly selection of light fitting could be more residential.
Its still a good piece of architecture in the given context.

i think that this house have too much information.
When we are bombarded with a lot of information we get confused so we don’t feel what really mathers, like the spatiality, the light, the beauty of the space…

intresting volumes… many designers think only in terms of plans…here there seems to be a great thought in voulumes…good work.

don’t agree with you there! simple case of “someones music is another mans noise

I just loved the design!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(got to over look many things …design changes from place to place. I’ve learnt that the hard way!)

well,it is quite strange to see a heavy bridge below the high ceiling,and the constructions are cold and thick,especially for a house………Jeison:A house where it is difficult to feel at home……Just say it again.

Good to see a tiny plot with the coconut trees still standing.

Clean spaces.Like the way the ceiling is refected in the layout at many places. Also the way the floor runs into the ceiling in the bathroom.

I like it.

i dont understand why everyone is so averse to this kind of interiors. it looks very simple and to the point , avoiding all the usual clutters that u see around in a residence.
I feel more importance was given to the feel of spaces, quite unlikely in India.

An Image or 2 gives a glimpse of the architecture around…(both the sides)…If thats the conventional local language then I guess this is quite a refined piece of architecture in a sense.

Can we have more images of the surroundings? Might help understand the context better. As a student I was more intrested in whats is around to understand/appreciate the work in discussion better.

The landscape seem to be to the point. The paving bleeding into the lawn is simple yet intresting.
