The Endless Summer Home

Design Brief:

A striking porch with a colonial blue door paves the way for this four bedroom home set on a lash 12,000-square-foot plot, a stone's throw away from Golden Beach. The single level structure with a terrace holds a drawing room, kitchen, dining room and a "gadda room" or living room. A wooden ledge with antique brass collectibles adds personality to an otherwise simple whit-washed passage. There is a carefully calibrated sense of space and light that runs through the home.

Exterior Integration:

The guest house exterior showcases a striking white facade with classical proportions and black window frames, creating dramatic contrast, The main residence features expansive glass walls that blur the boundaries between interior and exterior spaces.

The gadda room (informal living room)-a popular feature in Kolkata homes-was a special request from the owners. Kitted out with a huge daybed, it focuses on conviviality, telaxation and modern comfort. This is where the family hangs out, enterrains guests or just spends a lazy afternoon. Pink wicker chairs contrast pleasingly with the sheer curtains. A timber roof, locally-made furniture and a carpet further root the home in its surroundings. It's definitely elegant and slightly unexpected.
