Design Highlights
- Dynamic Layered Roof: A multi-tiered, sloping roof with classic terracotta tiles, a signature element of Kerala architecture, providing exceptional protection from sun and heavy monsoons.
- Deep, Sheltered Portico: A grand, recessed entrance portico with a warm wooden ceiling creates a welcoming, shaded transition space before entering the home.
- Textured Stone & Smooth Plaster: The facade features a beautiful interplay of textures, with light-colored, rustic stone cladding on pillars and walls contrasting with clean, off-white plaster.
- Clean-Lined Stone Pillars: Simple, rectangular pillars clad in stone provide robust support and a modern feel, departing from more ornate traditional forms.
- Courtyard-Focused Design: The layout is oriented inwards, with large windows and doors opening towards the central portico and potential inner courtyard, ensuring privacy and a serene view.
- Rich Wooden Elements: The extensive use of polished wood for the grand main door, window frames, and ceilings infuses the home with warmth and a touch of classic luxury.
