Ajeesh’s brand-new house at Muvattupuzha in Ernakulam, Kerala, proves that with meticulous planning and smart designing, fabulous homes could be built even on difficult terrain. The uneven layout of the 10-cent plot was quite challenging for the architect. The family didn’t believe that they could build their dream abode there.
However, these challenges were overcome, quite seamlessly, with excellent site planning. The multi-layered roof is what makes the elevation stand out. Roofing tiles have been paved on the GI truss roof.
Meanwhile, a layer of ceiling tiles too has been added beneath the roof. The wall of the car porch is highlighted with laterite stones to grant a rustic charm. The beautiful terracotta jali beside the porch looks cohesive as it perfectly complements the elevation.
The splendid abode in 3250 sqft has a car porch, formal and family living areas, dining space, kitchen with a work area, two bedrooms, bathrooms and a prayer area on the ground floor. Meanwhile, there is a study space, living area, balcony, two bedrooms and an open terrace on the upper floor. The family focussed on making the interiors warm and cosy, more than spending too much money on decorating the elevation.
The interiors are designed in a semi-open style to ensure visual connectivity between the spaces. The well-furnished family living area and the dining area too are part of the spacious hall. The furniture pieces that adorn the interiors are custom-made to suit the theme of the hous.
