This rural farmhouse located in 21 cents of family orchard near Venkulam, Thiruvananthapuram, this 1800sqft home is deisgned as a series of connecting thresholds overlooking the courtyard.  For clients who value privacy more than anything else, the formal living room is designed as an extension of the sitout. 3bhk single storey residence is planned as a quiet retreat from the sun and toil of the day. A place to rest and enjoy the fruits of labour , quite literally.

The design prioritises thermal comfort, relying on passive cooling with the goal of minimal operational and maintenance costs. With open and semi-open courtyards, natural light and ventilation enhance the living space creating spaces that breathe.
At the heart of the home is the double heighted dining and family space, overlooking the family orchard in the backyard. The kitchen also opens to a work area/verandah that breathes life into the busy workspace.

Our commitment to sustainable architecture is reflected in our use of vernacular, natural materials like stone, wood, and country bricks, perfectly suited to our climate—whether weathering monsoon storms or providing insulation with hollow terracotta clad walls. Traditional carpenters and experienced stone workers bring our designs to life with their craftsmanship, utilizing vellikallu,  dressed rubble, stone pillars, wooden pillars, and wooden sunshades. Every property we build is a testament to our dedication to sustainability and enduring beauty, ensuring that each home is a treasure to be passed down through generations.
