- The Frangipani House
a dare mix of tradition and contemporary style
The two-storey Frangipani house designed for Anil, and his wife Dr. Soumya, with 3 frangipani courtyards, is at Kechery, Thrissur, on a 14 cent site. The planning of the house evolved around three courtyards considering the
Frangipani tree as the focal theme. Frangipani leaf and flower patterns were taken onto the interiors as well. The landscape design plays with the boundary between the
interior and exterior, blends the green frangipani courtyards into the house, and provides a better living
environment.

Design in Details
The house was done entirely in brick, bare in most areas thus allowing the building to breathe. Feroke is known for its brick and tile factory. The materials used on site therefore were locally sourced. Stone was also used in commendation to brick.
With the interplay of tactile materiality and integrated landscape, the inhabitants harmonize with nature on an intimate scale. Earth, Stone and wood form an earthy palette that blends effortlessly into the family’s lifestyle
