Residence Renovation for Mr. shabeer and Family The residence for Mr.shabeer was already in a state of shambles as years of harsh weather had caused multiple leaks and mold to form. The elevation was also in dire need of a refresh. We were approached by the client to solve all issues while staying within his budget. We conceptualized three elements that would change the design of the residence while also solving leakage issues. A canopy was the first design element that was added, this would bring a modern touch to the existing structure while also providing sufficient protection for the walls from natural elements, a ceiling was lined under the canopy to provide both insulation from the heat as well as aesthetics. Laterite cladding was used on the elevation to bring warmth to the otherwise montonous elevation. Vertical pergolas, angled show walls etc were removed to simplify the overall design. Our intervention has brought back to life a house that was once deemed inhabitable . .
