Last Saturday (20th October 2007) was the inauguration of our new house in Kochi. I had mentioned about the new house and its construction long time back in this blog. The house is located in Maradu, Kochi City, Kerala. The construction of the house was started in mid February and completed last week.
Some details on the house;
- Total Area: 2650 sq ft.
- Bedrooms: 3 nos (all attached bathrooms)
- One Drawing room
- One Kitchen
- Dining room
- Upper and lower living room
- Closed terrace on the first floor
- Balconies for 2 bedrooms
- Total Time for construction-8 months
- Architecture- Kerala Style
- Plan and design- by Myself
Here are few snaps of the new house.



The architecture I followed was Kerala Style one and the design and plan was done by me. This is actually my third house plan. We will be shifting to new house this week once the house is fully completed, some minor works are still pending.

That’s good design, that exposes your Civil Engineering skills. What software did you use for modelling? I am asking this because I am a Mechanical Engineer.
Very nice design buddy. You have certainly been busy. I love the house.
Awesome look! I have always loved the Kerela architecture..
My house in Chennai has some red tiles that mimic a little of that too.
Fantastic design!
