PLANNING

The house is U shaped with the Water Court as its focus. The house has verandahs running all along, true to Kerala Building tradition, protecting the inner walls from heat and rain. The water courtyard is accessed from the central dining/ family area, which forms the heart of the house. The bedrooms, Living Area, and Kitchen opens to this dining area making it convenient for the elders to move around the house. The entire house is well ventilated. Sky lighting has been provided at various places within the house thus reducing the need for artificial lighting. The family living area provided on the upper floor opens to the nature, without compromise to privacy and security. The room meant for the son opens to small garden on all sides.
