被包裹的光；一个单户住宅，在喀拉拉邦Thrissur区繁华的城市商业中心的背景下，是一个关于 “人类 “的隐喻。它为家庭提供了这种安全的 “家 “的感觉，为他们创造了一个自身的世界。这里的空间被设计成允许自然流动和互动，被自然界最刺激的元素–光、空气和水包裹着。
Wrapped light; a single-family residence, set in the backdrop of a bustling urban commercial center in the Thrissur district of Kerala is a metaphor for ‘humanness’. It offers this secure sense of ‘home’ to the family by creating for them a world within itself. Spaces here were conceived to allow a natural flow and interaction within, wrapped in the most stimulating elements of nature- light, air, and water.
在这个两层楼房的入口处，映入眼帘的是对空间体量的使用，以增强人类的体验。狭窄的入口走道被一个两层楼高的天窗照亮，在用天然石材铺成的地板上形成了光线的游戏，地板上还种有热带植物。这种精心策划的元素的叠加只给你一个暗示，即前面的空间戏剧。继续进入宽敞的生活空间，该楼层有一个开放的计划，以餐厅为中心。花园庭院，在平时成为每个家庭成员的一个宁静的避风港，在家庭聚会时变成了一个活动区，变得活跃起来。庭院和锦鲤池塘一起形成了一个自然走廊，在使其他空间在视觉上更接近和连续方面起着关键作用。这条走廊还为放置在两侧的四间卧室提供光线、冷却通风和舒缓的视野。
What meets the eye at the very entrance of this two-storied house is the use of spatial volumes to enhance the human experience. The narrow entrance walkway is lit by a two-story high skylight creating a play of light on the floor that is paved with natural stone and lined with tropical plants. This overlay of carefully curated elements gives you only a hint of the spatial drama that lies ahead. Moving on into the voluminous living spaces, the floor has an open plan that centers around the dining hall. The garden courtyard, which becomes a peaceful getaway for each family member on a regular day, transforms into an activity zone and comes alive during household gatherings. The courtyard, together with the koi pond forms a natural corridor that is pivotal in making the rest of the spaces visually closer and continuous. This corridor also provides light, cooling ventilation, and soothing views to each of the four bedrooms placed on either side.
建筑师面临的主要挑战之一是在一个狭窄且被周围建筑视觉侵占的场地上创造一个连续的私人建筑空间。10英尺宽的水井就在这块地的中间，这使得这个过程更加困难。我们的努力是创造出一个相互作用的空间组合，因此，水井被整合到方案中。所有的空间都被规划为向内部庭院开放，这些庭院被设计成墙内的自然景观。这创造了一个包络，使房子与周围的地块隔开，并提供所需的隐私。
One of the key challenges faced by the architects was in creating a continuous and private built space on a site that is narrow and visually encroached upon by surrounding buildings. The presence of 10 feet wide well, right in the middle of the property only made the process even more difficult. The efforts were in creating an ensemble of spaces that functioned around each other and hence, the well was integrated into the scheme. All spaces were planned to open out into inner courtyards that were designed as natural landscapes within walls. This creates an envelope that keeps the house estranged from surrounding plots and provides the desired privacy.
空间的简约而耐人寻味的品质是通过白色的墙面与木材、科塔石和科腾钢等材料纹理的和谐结合实现的。这些矛盾的自然和非自然元素的并列，使设计成为引人注目的视觉享受。正是在这个时刻，一个设计；巧妙地制作以刺激感官，委托服务于预期的功能，坦率地演变为在 “人类 “层面的回报和参与。
The minimal yet intriguing quality of spaces was achieved by the harmonious combination of aesthetic white walls with material textures like wood, Kota stone, and Corten steel. The juxtaposition of these contradicting natural and unnatural elements is what makes the design a compelling visual treat. It is at this juncture that a design; skillfully crafted to stimulate senses, commissioned to serve the intended functions, candidly evolves to be rewarding and engaging on a ‘human’ level.
