存在之墙–该住宅位于印度南部喀拉拉邦沿海城市科济科德的一个密集住宅区的Y字形路口，位于一个被剥夺了外部视野的线性地块上。客户的个性是接受现代的生活方式，同时又非常怀念他们在马拉巴尔中部地区的祖传村庄。这个过程最终形成了一个想法，即在依靠现代建筑特点的同时，创造能够唤起人们对该地区集体记忆的空间。进一步介绍了创造一个 “现代、抽象但可亲的美学 “的概念。
The Wall of Being – The residence stands at a y – junction in a dense residential neighbourhood of Kozhikode, a coastal city in the south Indian state of Kerala, on a linear plot deprived of views to the outside. The client’s personality embraces a modern lifestyle, at the same time are very nostalgic about their ancestral village of the central Malabar region. The process culminated in the idea of making spaces that evoke one’s collective memory of the region, at the same time relying on modern architectural characteristics. Further briefed to a concept of creating a “Modern, Abstract, but relatable aesthetics.
作为一个确保隐私的解决方案，采用了一个内向的计划，并从中构思了一个相邻的墙的想法。相邻的墙–“存在的墙”，扮演着描绘一个人的根和文化背景的画布，房子的三维体量由此产生。在一楼和二楼都保持了一条与 “存在之墙 “平行的中轴线，使其与所有空间无缝对话，同时建立最佳的隔离和隐私。
As a solution to ensure privacy, an inward-looking plan was adopted from which the idea of an abutting wall was conceived. Abutting wall –“The wall of being”, plays as a canvas depicting one’s roots and cultural background, from which the three-dimensional volume of the house emerges. A central axis is maintained in parallel to the “wall of being” at both the ground floor and the first floor enabling a seamless dialogue with all spaces at the same time establishing optimum segregation and privacy.
体积–在房子的西侧有一堵没有任何窗户开口的相邻的墙，这就造成了空间拥挤的挑战。为了解决这个问题，我们引入了多个室内外双高的体量，并将房屋的其他空间穿插在其中。
Volume – The presence of an abutting wall without any window openings at the west side of the house created the challenge of having cramped spaces. To tackle it, multiple indoor-outdoor double-height volumes were introduced and other spaces of the house are placed interspersing to it.
空间–对天空开放的庭院和锦鲤池的引入唤起了人们对马拉巴尔传统房屋的集体记忆。院子和锦鲤池之间的夕阳花园位于一楼，旁边有一个通向西侧的大开口，作为房屋中心的高架门廊，可以享受下午的阳光。一楼的秋千花园俯瞰着道路，是人们与南端的邻居接触的地方。房子的其他主要空间被依次放置，穿插在中央开放体量中，包括院子和锦鲤池。同样的中央开放空间成为房子的灵魂，所有其他空间都从它那里获得光线和通风。
Spaces – The introduction of open to sky courtyard and koi pond evoke one’s collective memory of traditional houses of Malabar. The sunset garden between the courtyard and koi pond, on the first floor, beside a large opening to the west side, performs as an elevated portico at the centre of the house to enjoy the afternoon sun. The swing garden on the first floor overlooking the road is the place where one engages with the neighbourhood at the south end. Other primary spaces of the house are placed sequentially, interspersing the central open volume including the courtyard and koi pond. The very same central open space becomes the soul of the house from which all other spaces draws light and ventilation.
纹理和元素–房子的整体特征在于设计中在纹理、颜色和概念方面所尝试的对比。复古家具和再利用的本地结构细节，如传统吊顶的单元，装饰的柱头，加强了与墙壁的对比。客户的珠宝制造背景促进了室内元素设计细节的复杂化应用。室内空间与墙面的对比平衡，意在唤起人们的怀旧、沉思和平静。
Textures and Elements – The overall character of the house lies in the contrast which was experimented with in the design in terms of textures, colours and concepts. The collection of vintage furniture and repurposed vernacular structural details such as units from traditional coffer ceiling, ornamented pillar capitals enhanced the contrast with the wall of being. The client’s background in jewellery making catalysed the application of intricacy in the design detail of the interior elements. The balance in contrast of the interior spaces to the wall intends to evoke nostalgia, contemplation and calmness in one’s mind.
