This Coimbatore Home is Inspired by Dravidian, Chettinad and Colonial Design Styles



Located in a gated community in Coimbatore, this home was built by the architect as her residence. The existing villa on the site was brought down to give shape to this house heavily inspired by her memories.

Be it the traditional South Indian elements of temple architecture, her own Chettinad style ancestral house or the British Colonial design elements reminiscent of her school days, the architect has seamlessly blended all three design styles to bring this home together that compliments her lifestyle.

With elegant and bespoke interiors elements and a strong appreciation for art and artists, this house is a treasure trove of artifacts, furniture pieces, design stories and inspirations.

Climate responsive techniques, adequate access to natural light and ventilation, local art and craftsmanship and a harmonious design syntax are some key highlights of the project. The architect walks through the house, giving an insight into various design details and inspirations and how she worked out a fine balance between indoor and outdoor spaces.

    Really nice video but I was not able to see the heart of the house. I mean kitchen, do you cook or get take away from Annapoorna?

    I am flattered by the architecture!! Wow!! Amazing !! I don't think I would love any other house than this ever… I specifically liked the hand-painted glass columns which separate the dining area and living room. Fantastic work!

    What a marvelous blend of traditional and modern.

    It's like if you can walk into memories. Very thoughtfully designed and incorporating such diverse elements and blending them so smoothly.

    Every segment is like you walk into such a different zone. And yet they combine so well.

    I don't think it as a home. It is her life her passion her poetic expression not in words in prick s and stones and sand . She mixed every emotions of a home perfectly.its a masterpiece 🎉❤❤
