Located in a quiet village side, on the outskirts of the temple town kumbakonam at the cauvery river delta, the design of the small house primarily aims in responding well to the climate and the immediate surroundings. In the building construction, the choice of materials and techniques are inclined towards utilizing less energy.The house is compact in its planning yet sufficiently spacious in its experience. It provides optimal facilities in a site that is too small for many such spatial requirements. Also, the house with its choices of materials and construction techniques arrives at a project cost that is lesser in its material cost and optimal in its labour cost.
The compact house planning makes the spaces look sufficiently large by merging one space with another. The concept of space within space works well here.
The kitchen extends itself including dining as a part within itself and also visually connects to the court further beyond.
Similarly, the stairs space through a separate space visually connects well and merges with the living space
