Located in the quaint village of Meivazhi Salai, Sittannavasal near Pudukkottai, this house was conceived as a Paati-Veedu or Grandmother’s House. The typical layout of a Karaikudi house was infused with elements inspired by colonial design style in this single storied house.
A grand walkway leads to a huge portico surrounded by a verandah. Elements like stone columns, old windows, stained glasses, and intricate cement artwork is seen on the façade and one is greeted to the interiors of the house by a 100-year-old Chennai style door.
There is a huge courtyard inside surrounded by a verandah on all sides. The open to sky courtyard boasts a Spanish inspired water fountain which is the focal point of the house. Besides, a swing, old Chettinad and Anglo-Indian inspired furniture pieces and Athungudi inspired tiles complete the interior spaces of the house.

The use of vintage elements, fusion of two styles, detailed cement artworks, and reuse of old doors and windows are some key highlights of the project. The designers walk around the house giving an insight into how they cohesively used two distinct styles while meeting all the requirements of the clients.

Its pleassure to watch the lovely couple at this age and doing their work, which is typical south family culture, really missing those visuals in real life as its living in small family with fast paced technology world. Truely truly loved this home to keep both the architecture

Interesting but confusing concept with mixture of various architectural overlays. But coming from the client this idea has been well executed. Client seem to be very satisfied and can see in their facial expressions throughout. Overall beautifully planned and executed.

Only inner tiles should have been plain with maybe border of design. Otherwise it is peaceful.

The architect should talk in Tamil since this targeted audience predominantly is Tamil people. They can also release English and Hindi versions. Right now one is talking in Tamil and the other one in English.

It's a confused mish mash of different styles. Not good.

What a dumb way to look at life. Christians are not the problem, just the radical mindset which exists in people irrespective of their religion. For example, you seem to be a radicalised youth who believes christians are your enemy even after being a follower of the most peaceful & inclusive religion. I feel for you bro, get well soon.

The house is nice minus the cheesy furniture, the tulip sofa is an abhorrence. There is no maturity in the decor pieces. They look like something a child would want. The guest bedroom bed is really awful. I wish that they had hired a more talented and professional decorator.
