Meera Pyarelal of the Thrissur-based studio reimagines the interiors of an ancestral home drawing cues from a seemingly disappearing architectural style of Kerala.

We call this the Minimal Indian House - ‘Minimal’, as there is no ostentation or decoration of any kind. Minimalist house design with traditional Indian elements, where the building elements like walls, floors, roof reveals, themselves as it is - walls are in stabilised mud blocks (Smb).
