在一个65英尺×85英尺的死胡同里，有一栋已有50年历史的老房子，设计了一个新的现代家庭住宅，以取代现有的传统中世纪房子。房子的设计是内敛的，目的是在地块内包裹一个私人的绿色空间，并围绕它组织生活空间。

In a plot measuring 65 feet x 85 feet on a dead end road, was the site with an existing 50 year old house .A new contemporary family home was designed to replace an existing traditional mid century house. The house was designed to be introverted with the objective to wrap a private green space within the plot and to organise living spaces around it.

受赠地块旁边有一个储备公园，设计利用公园大树的树冠作为借景。C规划户型的内部花园庭院设计与公园用地相邻。嵌套式的景观让客户将私人花园作为餐饮空间的物理延伸，也是卧室和生活区的视觉延伸。不同的内部体量、水景和景观的运用，大大有助于降低内部温度。

Gifted with a reserve park adjacent to the site, the design took the opportunity to use the canopies of the park’s large trees as borrowed landscape. The C planned house has its internal garden court designed adjacent to the park site. The nestled landscape allows the clients to use the private garden as a physical extension of the dining space and a visual extension of the bedrooms and living area. The use of varying internal volumes, water feature and landscape greatly helps to reduce the internal temperatures.

顾名思义，该项目完全使用了除砖块以外的材料建造。玻璃纤维增强石膏（GFRG）板被用于建造墙壁和屋顶的结构。预制板已在现场使用起重机架设，并有其’空腔填充钢筋混凝土。牆壁和屋頂均使用預製板，使其成為一個整體結構，從而使其在地震中安全。

As the name suggests the project was completely built using materials besides brick. Glass fibre Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG) panels were used to construct both the walls and the roofs of the structure. The precast panels have been erected on site using cranes and has its’ cavities filled with reinforced concrete. The usage of panel for both the walls and the roof – make it a monolithic structure thereby making it earthquake safe.

这种技术的使用有助于降低内部温度，并使获得宝贵的地毯面积。这种绿色技术，利用工业废料制造面板，使其成为一种环保的建筑方式，同时也具有最小的碳足迹。GFRG面板的使用使得45度的陡峭屋顶的搭建变得相当容易，从而能够创造出不同体积的戏剧性空间。倾斜的屋顶使用当地的粉红色板岩，随着太阳的移动而改变其色调。轻轻的雨点会在其表面带来闪闪发光的效果。

The use of this technology helped to reduce the internal temperature and has enabled to gain precious carpet area. This green technology, which manufactures its panels using industrial wastes makes it an environmentally friendly way to build and also has minimum carbon footprint. The use of GFRG panels made it rather easy to erect the 45 degree steep pitched roof that enabled to create dramatic spaces of varying volumes within. The sloped roof is clad using locally sourced pink slate which changes its hue by the movement of the sun. A gentle splash of rain brings out a shimmering effect on its surface.

任何进入建筑的人都会体验到一种兴奋的感觉，因为他们在不同的空间排列中移动。栖息在房子前面的街区是一个黑色的卡达帕包覆的水体，用传统的喀拉拉邦石灯作为出水口。通向天空的水体将新鲜凉爽的空气引入生活空间。水体的潺潺声在客厅里回荡。高大如教堂的体量，有一盏宏大的黑金丽人吊灯和一盏由Nirmal S John Britto为John Nir.London设计的蛇形落地灯。上层的书房区与下面的起居区和门厅区的双高体量互动。它还有一扇窗户，也可以俯瞰到下面的水体。

Anyone who enters the building experiences a sense of excitement as they are moving across varying volumetric spatial arrangement. Perched within front block of the house is a black kadappa clad water body with a traditional Kerala stone lamp used as a water spout. The open to sky water body brings in the fresh cool air into the living space. The gurgling sounds of the water body reverberates in the living room. The tall chapel like volume has a grand black and gold Lilly chandelier and a serpent floor lamp designed by Nirmal S John Britto for John Nir.London. The study area on the upper level interacts with the double height volume of the living and foyer area below. It also has a window that overlooks into the water body below as well.

楼梯既是一个座位区，也是展示客户铜器收藏的空间。卧室里有一个弹出式的窗户，成为一个舒适的小窝，可以俯瞰私人花园。一楼的家庭休息室的天花板高度为8英尺，使空间感觉舒适而惬意。天花板的低高度辅以天花板高的玻璃开口，将人们的视线引向花园和公园外的风景。

The staircase doubles up as a seating area and a space to display the client’s brassware collection. The bedrooms are provided with a pop-out window that becomes a comfortable nook to over look into the private garden. The family lounge on the first floor has ceiling at 8 feet height to make the space feel cosy and comfortable. The low height of the ceiling aided with ceiling high glass openings draws one’s eyes outwards towards the garden and the landscape of the park beyond.
