Coimbatore, as the second largest metropolis city in India, built a house with a beautiful and brilliant architectural form. Among the cityscapes blended with modernity, this ambitious building was designed by MuseLAB.

As a project that has great challenges, the building of this house takes the principle of Manaiyadi Shastram, an ancient science originating in South India, which mandates certain sizes and specifications in the layout.

This house, with an unusual shape, charming courtyard, high arched openings, and a high roof, takes many architectural principles from Spain and Mexico combined with the tropical climate in Coimbatore.

The 12,000-square-foot house design rotates around a central courtyard designated as a focal point connecting the social areas on the ground floor, with an outdoor pool, lounge, dining room, and family room all located inside and carefully arranged.

The layout of this house is arranged according to the principle of horizontality. The layout unfolds by highlighting the natural landscape so that a unique interaction is formed between indoor and outdoor spaces passed by its residents. The design is inspired by the hacienda. This house also combines Chettinad's vernacular architecture, which is clearly visible in the central courtyard.

As in the library room, skylights that present sunlight are given a beautiful path in the room, reflecting off the walls and onto the floor, creating an interesting visual experience.

The focus of MuseLAB's design philosophy is evident that the project goes beyond typical visual styles and focuses on creating movement and meaningful moments that resonate with residents.
