The Courtyard House by FADD Studio

Simply put, the Courtyard House is a home of dreams. Nostalgic and traditional Indian elements come together with Spanish, Mogul & Moroccan motifs to create magic in a space that has no walls differentiating the inside from the out. The architecture and interiors are tightly woven together to tell a story of patterns, colours, textures and materials which are all carefully curated within each room. The entrance is a spectacular vision of blue skies, green lawn, angular roofs, a deep mustard wall and a dramatic walkway that creates shadows as a result of a laser-cut pattern on the roof. The same design is then reflected in the pavers which bleed in a deconstructed manner into the lawn. The water body on the left consists of square platforms of different heights that play hide and seek with the tropical plants and a gorgeous frangipani tree. A bright blue wall hallmarks the entrances which is composed of a solid wooden door and an old block print piece as the handle. The landscape was designed to ensure that the interiors and architecture were an extension of each other.
