A house nestling between a mature coconut palm and tropical fruit tree orchard by paddy fields is an attempt at creating a balance between a Goan tropical contemporary expression and the rustic cottage feel that the clients needed. The plan meanders between the trees to create spaces that look out into paddy fields and a large internal courtyard.
The house has a base of clean cut exposed laterite stone masonry and a whitewashed first floor, sandwiched between the laterite base and tall pitched clay tiled roof.
