Set against the undulating residential hills of Muvattupuzha, 1530 Resi stands as a thoughtful dialogue between tradition and modernity. The 2500 sqft residence revisits the familiar language of Kerala vernacular with a contemporary sensibility, allowing form, material, and climate to dictate its architectural identity. The defining gesture of the house is its roofline. A gable that begins at 15 degrees and progresses to 30 degrees not only gives the project its name but also frames its character. 

Clad with traditional Mangalore roof tiles, the profile strikes a balance between nostalgia and innovation. The house is articulated through a palette of off-white surfaces, terracotta tones, and deep grey stone, each material offering both texture and protection within Kerala’s tropical climate. Generous overhangs extend from the roof, shielding the building from heavy rains and harsh sunlight, a pragmatic response to its context.
