Located at Kurungara near Pulladu in Pathanamthitta, Kerala, is the house that belongs to Rajani a native of the place. It, quintessentially, embodies a tale of friendship and commitment. Rajani’s old house was almost in a dilapidated state.
Her classmate Diana was moved by her friend’s helpless situation and decided to build a brand-new home for her. The house designed in 1050 sqft was constructed on a budget of Rs 23 lakh. Rajani and Diana have been close friends since childhood.
Diana, who is settled in the US, was heartbroken seeing the condition of her friend’s house. She then didn’t hesitate to suggest building a new house for her friend Rajani and her family. Diana returned to the US immediately after the construction had begun.
She, however, returned with her family to celebrate the house-warming ritual of Rajani’s new house. It was a beautiful sight watching the two childhood friends lighting the stove together to boil the milk as part of the ceremony. The two families still cherish their friendship with an unwavering warmth.
Jithu and Geethu deserve credit for designing the minimal yet elegant house. They say that many people had financially supported the family, especially while furnishing the house. The house has been built in a 7.
5- cent rectangular plot. The contemporary house, with a wide elevation, suits the layout of the plot. Projections are added around the structure to tackle the unique weather conditions of Kerala where it rains for six months.
