Struggling to find the perfect place to call home can leave you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. You want to be able to connect with your roots but worry about not being able to find the perfect home design with the modern amenities that your family needs. Read this portfolio to know more about “An eye-catching minimal contemporary home design with an international touch”.
Contemporary homes are the most sought-after type of house today. The main feature of this house is the clean and minimal look. These kinds of homes are best suitable for NRI clients who want to enjoy the luxury of a home at a cost that is like that of a rented home.
This is a story of a very sweet NRI couple who had been living in Australia for the past decade and were looking for a change of pace. They both had successful IT careers, and, despite their multiple homesick moments, they enjoyed their life in Australia. After some soul-searching, they decided to move back to India with their joint family of 10 people and thus wanted a 7BHK contemporary home.
The plot size is 100’X 80’ which was facing East with a total area of 8000 square feet. They wanted to construct the home on 3500 square feet on the ground floor and with a total area of 9000 square feet. The site is contoured so they must flatten it before starting the construction. The team first uses the traditional methods of demolition, but the terrain proves too difficult for them. They then decide to come up with four separate plots involving specialized equipment, laborers, and engineers to cover all the ground necessary.
Their specifications were straightforward: they wanted an open-plan concept with an international contemporary style design. They requested an L-shaped house because it has large open spaces. An open floor plan with adequate lighting and ventilation produces a warm, sunny, and welcoming environment. These kinds of homes exhibit indoor-outdoor harmony. The client can modify the space with courtyards, deck areas for seating, or even rock gardens using a dynamic L-shape design. Not to forget about the breathtaking view the L-shape design would provide. They wanted a home that would be an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. They imagined a place with an infinity pool, lush gardens, an outdoor gym, and plenty of natural light streaming through large windows. To bring their vision to life, they reached out to us. After discussing their ideas in detail, they asked for something special: toughened glass rather than concrete for the walls of the house. We were stunned but agreed to honor their request as they explained how they wanted natural sunlight to flood into every room.
They wanted to build a structure in a short period of time and at a low cost, so they chose steel structure, which is easy to install in just 6 months and can help you create flexible spaces that allow people to get closer to nature and are very affordable as well. They were very concerned about security because we used open planning and a glass façade. So, we proposed a comprehensive security system that includes alarms, fabrication panels, and reinforced glass to ensure your home is safe and secure. We designed high modern compound walls which will also provide an extra layer of protection and peace of mind for them and their family.
This house is a great example of minimal contemporary home. It's simple, yet elegant. It has a nice contemporary feel to it, but with an international touch. That's why it's a great combination. It's minimalist, yet it's not just a box with a door and windows. It has an interesting exterior design and an open-concept interior design.
