Neeranjanam is a thoughtfully designed residence for a family of four who sought a contemporary home rooted in the cultural sensibilities of their Kerala heritage. Located on a 41’x112’ plot in Bangalore’s Electronic City, the site offered a peaceful setting within a well-established residential neighbourhood. The design approach centred on clean, modern forms and a curated palette of materials. Each choice subtly echoes the family's values and the essence of home.

For this home, the design narrative took shape when the client expressed a desire to align the house with a key principle of Kerala’s Vastu, a strong north-to-south orientation. This central axis became the guiding line for the entire layout. They embraced this idea wholeheartedly, structuring the plan around a clear spatial spine that runs from the main gate through the front door and extends all the way to the backyard. The home is carefully zoned into public, semi-private, and private areas, ensuring both functionality and flow. 

At the heart of the plan is a central courtyard, a quiet retreat that visually and spatially connects the living and dining areas, as well as the primary bedrooms above. The planning was done considering two courts, one being a sunken living area that aligns with the level of the landscape and swimming pool, inspired by traditional Kerala dual-courtyard concepts.
