It is an introverted house that has maximum interaction of spaces and between family members during the time they spend there in their busy lifestyle. The ground floor was mainly allocated for common and visitor’s functions. The second floor was designed with master bed room, an entertainment pavilion and swimming pool as they wanted a family villa type space in that floor.



Timber as mainly used material in common spaces, contributes a great amount to its homey and calm environment which also gives a traditional look for the modern sharp spaces. Bed room floors are consisted cut and cement floors to give the traditional look in a different way.



There is no use of any contrasted colors other than the natural color scheme come through the used materials such as timber color, greeneries of outer landscape, natural cement color, color of gavel etc.




Custom made furniture was used for the entire house and all other interior related items were done and selected in order to enhance the architectural theme. In this house architecture, interior, furniture and landscape designs were done altogether to achieve a one comprehensive entity.
