The historic Race Course Road in Coimbatore hides in its leafy folds an open, interconnected and serene home, built as an ode to the personality of its inhabitants as it basks in the city’s rich textile traditions. Principal Designers Sandeep Khosla and Amaresh Anand of Bengaluru based Khosla Associates have shaped this two-storeyed, 12,500 sq ft abode that’s swamped with frequent green bursts, infusing solid concrete walls with naturally lit spaces. “The emphasis was on adapting a modern tropical theme to the space by blurring the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors,” says Anand.
Inhabited by a couple, their two children and pet dogs, the house is designed to be conducive to the free flow of dialogue and lifestyles with formal and entertaining areas occupying the lower level, while more private quarters are upstairs. The homeowners, a successful entrepreneur couple, are known to frequently socialise and host family and friends. This knowledge helped lay the foundation for the home’s spatial layout and achieve spaces like the open kitchen, dining area, and the bar that spills out onto a verandah.
