Ranjith and Shivaprabha, who work at ONGC, proudly displayed their dream home "Mithila" in the beautiful countryside of Kooropada, Kottayam District, Kerala. The couple often read the Home Style topic on Manorama Online and became interested in design. The most amazing fact about their brand new house is that it was designed by the couple themselves. Since they are all geoscientists, they used many natural elements to enhance the unique appearance of the house. The composite wall made of laterite stone exudes a rustic charm. The plan is finalized after multiple designs for each area. For this, they even purchased a special software. Ranjith said that they spent nearly a year experimenting with various designs and finally came up with a plan. It is also commendable that the engineer Shibu fulfilled their dreams by perfectly executing the plan and building their dream homes.

The facade combines colonial elegance and modern style. The pergola design is a unique feature of contemporary architecture and has also been added to the main entrance and ticket gate. There are roads on the north and west sides of the house. Therefore, the altitude also has two different "appearances", and unique scenery can be seen from the road. Although the house faces north, the west side also looks elegant and elegant, as if it were an entrance. In order to adapt to the tropical climate of Kerala, a truss roof was installed above the flat roof. The roof is tiled to give that elegant appearance. In addition to reducing the heat inside the house, this function also ensures the double height of the upper floor. This actually helps to make the structure in the plot below the road level look tall and majestic.

This magnificent mansion is designed with an area of ​​3760 square feet and features a car porch, lounge area, formal and family living areas, pooja area, upper level living space, kitchen with adjacent work area, storage room, library and five bedrooms And two balconies. The interior design is open. The public space adopts elegant white tones. At the same time, the frame of the window uses multi-wood paneling, which is coated with walnut stained polish. The custom-made furniture is elegant and complements the theme of the house. The space-saving area is the highlight of this cleverly designed house. Digital door locks, CCTV surveillance and automatic wifi lights are some of the spectacular features of this modern residence.

The entrance door opens to the foyer. The traditional pooja space and formal living areas are arranged on both sides of the foyer. The image of Lord Ganesh, which was completed by CNC cutting on the metal door in Purga district, is an eye-catching element. In addition, the exquisite CNC design of peacock feathers on the ceiling of the lobby is also very attractive. A wall in the formal living area is highlighted with natural stone cladding, and a Buddha statue is fixed on this wall. At the same time, the antique cobblestone court below is a beautiful addition to complete the composition. All of this creates a charming atmosphere for the formal living area.

The industrial-style staircase is the highlight of the spacious family living area. The steps are covered with palm planks specially brought from Palakkad. At the same time, the handrails are stainless steel cables. An internal courtyard with artificial grass under the stairs is an interesting addition. The vertical pergola on the wall next to the stairs brings a lot of natural light to the house. At the same time, the other double-height wall is decorated with laterite stone cladding.

The semi-partition is the place that separates the family living area from the TV space. Since the dining area is designed as an open plan, roller shutters are installed instead of doors to connect this area to the terrace. The composite wall next to the patio was built in the double high school to separate the pavilions here. The vertical garden here adds a touch of pleasant greenery. In addition, this area is cool and exudes a positive vibe.

The cabinets in the modular kitchen are made of wood with lacquered glass finishes. At the same time, the nano white counter also adds an elegant atmosphere to the kitchen.

There are four bedrooms in the house. In addition, there is a servant's room. Two bedrooms are on the first floor and three bedrooms are on the upper floor. The bedroom is decorated with a unique color theme. The bedroom with bathtub also has a separate dressing area and wardrobe. One of the balconies has a tempered glass pergola roof. At the same time, the other is an enclosed balcony with a sloping roof.

Since there is ample supply of natural light and cold air in the house, there is no need to turn on lights or fans during the day. The structure is constructed with double-layer bricks, which helps to reduce the heat inside the house. The family expressed their love for green plants by decorating their house with many beautiful indoor plants. In addition, they are all preparing to plant some exotic fruit trees in their charming garden. The couple said they were happy to move into their dream residence designed on a computer screen.
