Malleshwaram is an ode to the traditional Dravidian and Carnatic courtyard homes. It is intended to be a celebration of the Indian craft and skill, with many a reference from the huge old inward-looking rural mansions. In this space, where tradition and elegance converge, the architecture sings in whispers of wood and shadows.

In the embryonic phase of this project, we engaged ourselves in the artistry of design, strongly pursuing a creation that would incorporate an artwork of tranquility and serenity into its very essence. We carefully picked and arranged a wide range of lighting components, making sure that each one blended in well with the natural surroundings.

The intention of this project is deeply rooted in the understanding of the site as an opportunity to create a sense of place. The house is not perceived as an imposed object but as a tool to uncover the natural events and manifestations specific to the context. The placement of the modules sets a high priority on the disposition of outdoor areas.
