Located on a highly contoured site overlooking the Akolum river , this house is an interesting contemporary reinterpretation of the traditional Mediterranean home..Built of ideal square cube- shaped sections , the rooms are determined by the houses external form , juxtaposed with huge windows to capture the views around.. The large windows make use of natural light and are interspaced with smaller once that light specific areas variably in the house & also frame the horizons.. The entire house is divided in to public & private spaces.. To make the spaces highly cohesive & interactive the public spaces of the house like living , dinning & family rooms along with the kitchen are given an entire open feel .. Informal demarcations between the spaces to give the required feel of definition to function have been provided by dividing screens or huge sliding doors.. Alternatively the same have been binded together by use of common material pallets.. The public spaces not only define high level of luxury in terms of look and feel but are further accentuated by used of automated lighting controls , integrated security system , entertainment and HVACs controls as well.. Further to this the private spaces are clearly defined with a connecting passage which holds within, it a small powder basin , which certainly acts as a punctuation here by use of its jazzy purple mirror frame.. Going ahead are the private areas which are made up of a luxurious master bedroom flanked with wooden flooring & highlighted with a hide carpet The furniture here have been given a very Victorian yet trendy feel .. The children's bedroom is cozy color filled & widened up by use of mirrors ... The guess bedroom receives its warmth and timeless feel with the dark brown colored wall paper ..
