INTERIOR AT KODUNGALLUR-THRISSUR-KERALA

A design sensibility rooted in a nuanced scheme of layered grays, crisp whites, black, and the earthy tone of natural wood, this modern residential property in Kerala exhibits a composed external aesthetics of restrained elegance. Also known as a modern tropical house, the design maintains an architectonic simplicity where form, texture, and light feature largely. In fact, every room in the development now represents a liminal zone between living and nature. Natural lighting, instead of being allowed in, is carefully mediated from dawn’s soft colors into the contrasts of dusk. There is thus a dynamism in living in this home that translates the philosophy of sustainable architecture at its best by Studio Saiora.
