An award-winning 4,300 sq. ft. residence designed around natural light, quiet textures, and a profound connection to nature.

The heart of House 111 is this open-to-sky courtyard, featuring a magnificent olive tree. It acts as a serene focal point, grounding the home and bringing a piece of nature indoors.

This video provides a glimpse into the various spaces within House 111, from its light-filled corridors to its cozy, texture-rich living areas.

The open kitchen and bar area features a striking grey granite backsplash and countertop. It's a functional space designed for both everyday living and entertaining, continuing the home's monochrome theme.

The formal dining space is defined by its elegant simplicity. A long, dark table is set under a series of woven fabric pendant lights, with sheer curtains diffusing the natural light to create a soft, ethereal glow.

The reflection on the polished dark marble floor enhances the drama and elegance of the dining area in House 111.

This living area, part of our award-winning design, features a backdrop of dark, charred veneer storage. The light grey sofa and soft textures create a comfortable space that is rich without being cluttered.

We designed the nursery to be a playful yet calming space. A jungle-themed wallpaper adds a touch of whimsy, while the furniture is functional, comfortable, and provides ample storage.

About Project Spotlight: House 111

In House 111, we replaced conventional layout ideas with an open-to-sky courtyard, anchored by a single olive tree. This was not just a design choice, it was a way to ground the entire 4,300 sq. ft. apartment in nature, ensuring that even in a busy part of Indiranagar, the home feels like a place to breathe and disconnect.

An exterior view of the Nairy Residence, which was nominated for the ArchDaily 2024 Building of the Year award. The composition balances heavy, protective forms with open, cantilevered balconies, expressing the home's layered approach to privacy and openness.19
The facade of the Nairy Residence showcases a dialogue between materials. The warmth of exposed brick contrasts with the clean white plaster and the raw, board-formed concrete base, which is intentionally being overtaken by climbing plants to integrate the structure with its landscape over time.
The street-facing elevation of the Nairy Residence is designed for privacy at the ground level, with a perforated metal gate and a solid concrete plinth. Above, a projecting bay window with an angled sill creates a dynamic architectural feature while capturing specific views.
A key design strategy is to create pathways that connect the inhabitants with nature. Here, a set of exterior concrete steps runs alongside a water channel and lush planting, leading up from the garden and blurring the line between the built form and the landscape.
