Holiday Homes
Yercaud, India
"Exploring the Yercaud holiday home, a stunning fusion of steel and exposed brick walls, designed as a retreat for the Shivakumar and Yethish families. Spread across 15,000 sq ft amidst nature's embrace, this haven aims to dissolve the strains of hectic life, offering glimpses of tranquil surroundings.
The steel frames were designed to resist wind loads as the site offers updraft due to the contour. The house invites visitors through a shaded Thinnai acting as a welcome pavilion. A glass courtyard has been used to enclose the trees that were kept, giving users a visual component. The ground floor integrates elements like swimming pool, outdoor dining and barbeque space with the primary spaces surrounded by trees and landforms. This allows elders to easily access the recreational spaces surrounded by trees and landforms. The deck spaces promote dual function, projecting from the structure it offers view towards the surroundings combined with the ability to funnel wind into the structure. Major trees that were on the property were retained and had been employed as a design element. The structural steel was prefabricated and sought direct installation on site to accelerate building.The Abundant Stone Available on the Site resulted in elegant random rubble stone Masonry on retaining, compound, and stilt floor walls. Cut and fill strategy has been incorporated to allow the building to adapt to the terrain. This also confers to better views from site. The house has also sees the use of brick patterns along the staircase to generate movement along with many interesting features.
As the built structure evolves into a cherished home, heartfelt thanks to Mrs. and Mr. Shivakumar, Mrs. and Mr. Yethish, and their families for making this dream a reality.
