A Harmonious Blend of Sloping Roof Elegance and Modernist Cubism
Set amidst Kerala’s lush green palms and ambient tropical landscape, this beautiful 1851 Sq.Ft. home captures the imagination with its unique fusion of traditional sloping roof aesthetics and the clean, sharp geometry of modernist cubism. It’s not just a house—it’s a bold architectural statement grounded in climatic logic, spatial elegance, and artistic balance.
Architectural Overview
The home features a sculptural play of two contrasting design philosophies. On one side, traditional gable roofs clad with earthy terracotta tiles provide shade, cool interiors, and visual familiarity. On the other, flat-roofed volumes assert the clean, minimal language of contemporary design. Together, they create an eye-catching silhouette that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking.
Designed for a modern Indian family, the house incorporates 3 spacious bedrooms, living spaces that encourage interaction, and practical features like a pooja room, utility terrace, and dedicated work area—all spread across a two-storey plan.

Why This Design Stands Out
This home is not a cookie-cutter model—it’s a bespoke expression of the residents' personality and the land it stands on. Whether you're drawn by its practicality or its poetry in form, this house is a perfect testament to how Kerala’s age-old wisdom can flourish in modern architectural language. With efficient space planning and signature visual character, it's ideal for those who want to blend rooted tradition with contemporary comfort.
