Arun Vidyasagar

Haneefa Residence, Aluva, Ernakulam. Completed in 2024. Design follows a very transparent and interconnected spaces planning pattern, opening the south faces to the north. The common spaces don’t have a visible division, which creates flowing spaces, but still identifies the function. The south-western faces are shaded and has filtered light and ventilation entering, opening up to the larger open spaces of the north face. The back yard faces Periyar river and the wider opening automatically enhances the view to the river. The design is largely straight lines, open and tall volumes with fenestrations and the landscape blends in to the spaces wherever possible. All of the family spaces and bedrooms open to the backyard river view giving a calmness to the living spaces. #waterfront #sereneliving #home #tropicalhome #kerala #keralahome #myhome #architecture #peaceful #living #insideoutsideliving
