This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
This modern house, completed in 2012 by Architecture Paradigm, is located in Gundelpet, a small town close to Mysore, in southern India.
The house is 2,400 sq ft and is designed to accommodate and encourage a social lifestyle between two families. The living and dining spaces are double height, there are outdoor living areas, and flexible indoor living spaces.
The use of earthy clay tiles, stone, cement and wood draws from local low-rise developments, at the same time as reflecting the progressive nature of the local area.
