2001 Square Feet 3 Bedroom Colonial Kerala Home Design and Plan

From the end of the pavilion and porch, it is clear how the structure dissolves when the structure meets the outside. The horizontal joints of the side panels give way to the open slats that block the sun, but allow the breeze and ambient light. Columns and beams have been subdivided into smaller parts, reducing their overall mass. The thinner members joined together contribute to the lightness of the structure, even over a fairly wide footprint. The stone base mediates the grading and becomes a terrace, defined in the landscape of the informal place, but without the strict street side.
