FAISAL RESIDENCE
Client: Mr. Faisal
Location: Areekode, Kerala
Total Built-up Area: 2,183 sq. ft.
Nestled in the lush landscapes of Areekode, this 2,183 sq. ft. tropical residence for Mr. Faisal exemplifies a harmonious blend of traditional Kerala architecture and contemporary design principles. The home's dual front elevation views provide a dynamic visual experience, enhancing its presence within the surrounding environment.
A prominent feature of the residence is its sloped roof, designed to efficiently channel rainwater during the monsoon season and provide shade to reduce heat gain. This design choice not only pays homage to regional aesthetics but also serves a practical purpose, aligning with the principles of Tropical Modernism.
The façade is adorned with laterite cladding, a material abundantly found in Kerala, known for its durability and thermal properties. This choice of material grounds the structure in its natural surroundings and reflects the traditional building practices of the region.
Expansive glass areas are strategically integrated throughout the residence, allowing for ample natural light and fostering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. This design element not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also promotes energy efficiency by reducing the need for artificial lighting.
Inside, the home comprises four spacious bedrooms and five bathrooms, each thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and functionality. The open-plan layout encourages fluid movement between spaces, catering to the needs of modern family living.
This residence stands as a testament to the seamless integration of traditional materials and forms with modern living requirements, resulting in a home that is both environmentally responsive and aesthetically pleasing.
