Designed for an elderly couple, by their son and daughter-in-law, House with Two Courts derives inspiration from the Wada Houses of Northern Karnataka, as an ode to their parents’ days as teachers in the region.
The two courts juxtapose in their functionality as one connects the users to the outdoors, and the other orchestrates indoor activities. Characterized by a simple material palette, clean lines, and sharp geometry, the house is brought to life using skylights and accent blue shades in various spaces.
One of the most beautiful spaces in the house is a double-height central courtyard. All spaces in the house spill onto or overlook this space highlighted by a seater and a green shrub.

A fine balance between indoor and outdoor spaces, sufficient natural light, and ample greenery are some key highlights of the project. The architects walk around the house giving an insight into how they were inspired by a traditional Wada home to make this contemporary home in Bengaluru.
