In a quaint little village, Kurumbagaram, near the port town of Karaikal in southern Tamilnadu is the vacation home of our client- a newly married couple and their parents. Intended to be a get-away from the hustle of urban life, the house is nestled amongst the shade of sandalwood trees, fruit orchards and paddy fields.

This home complements an urban façade that we have had the opportunity to create over three years. This façade is made up of four projects by the studio. As this is the last one oriented towards the western axis of the central block of the development, we were interested in using a warmer colour scheme and a more enclosed volume than the rest of th...

This was a roof with no operation, so we decided to make a nostalgic space for holding private events. These events hold with about 150 people population, so we need spaces for them. We want each person who go there feel travel to past years and see nostalgic symbols, so we started to design a historical house based on Ghajar architecture.

The SS House is an Italian private vacation home inserted into a young olive grove in the Ostuni countryside, in the Valle d'Itria area (Puglia). The volume, white and pure, stands out in the surrounding countryside through its simple forms of traditional Apulian architecture, innovated with infusions of contemporary architectural details.

The house stands at a y - junction in a dense residential neighbourhood of Kozhikode, a coastal city in Kerala, on a linear plot deprived of views to the outside. The resident’s personality embraces a modern lifestyle, at the same time they are deeply nostalgic about their ancestral village of the Mid Malabar region of India.

In this house, the living space unveils through views that change with the winds and tides, like a living and breathing postcard. The project emerges through these captured moments, where each new architectural fragment prints and dances in its context.
