This generational home integrates private spaces for each family member within a spacious, interconnected layout, emphasizing indoor-outdoor living.The residence is strategically oriented to the southwest, optimizing natural light and ventilation. Surrounded by coconut palms, it offers a serene farm setting on one side contrasting with the city’s bustling energy on the other.
The design features separate vehicular and pedestrian entries, lush landscaping, and minimal west-facing openings to ensure privacy. Large east-facing windows provide ample natural light without excessive heat, while a central garden shaded from the afternoon sun serves as a tranquil focal point.A standout feature is the distinctive staircase, adorned with a skylight and a towering louvered window, which illuminates the space and the sacred Puja room at its center.
