PASSAGEWAY, PRIVATE RESIDENCE, CHETTINAD
PERIOD: 2014

Seen here is a contemporary residence completed in 2014. The interiors are finished with a stone floor, wooden pillars and an accentuated door lintel - features reminiscent of traditional Chettinad architecture. It is the striking green that gives the space its dramatic character, counterpoising the other materials’ natural palette.
