Text description provided by the architects. Ovoid - the name comes from the egg shaped pillars that stretch across the front deck. This holiday home nestled in the greenest depth of "The Coffee brewing and Co." coffee estate, is a contemporary adaptation of the local architecture with pitched roofing. the design stemmed from the basic brief of, flowing with the land topography and creating the entire structure so that its within the foliage height.

The greenery of the plantation is mirrored in every part of  house that you see. While you walk along the passage that interconnects the living and sleeping spaces, or within each room as inbuilt seaters. the towering French doors of the living literally bring the outdoors in, allowing the deck to be a part of the indoors, and one can entertain guests without feeling restricted by space. the house is built in locally available laterite stone, which in its exposed form arrests all your senses along the passageway from living to bedroom.

The roof is the design feature of the house which is an inclined curve, like a trough, one piece structure cast together. The house is constructed in the way that allows sunlight in every corner of it throughout the day. One can truly feel the serene outdoor all across inside the house.
