The Nagappa Residence, nestled in the serene neighborhood of Thillai Nagar. The design of this residence incorporates innovative construction techniques, featuring a filler slab design and elegant travertine-clad walls.
The filler slab design serves as a prominent architectural element of the Nagappa Residence. This construction technique involves the use of filler material, such as lightweight concrete or expanded polystyrene, to reduce the overall weight of the structure without compromising its structural integrity. This design approach allows for larger spans and enhances the open and airy feel of the interior spaces. The result is a visually striking residence that seamlessly blends aesthetics with functionality.
Adding to the allure of the Nagappa Residence are the travertine-clad walls. Travertine, a type of natural stone, lends a timeless and sophisticated appeal to the exterior facade. The earthy tones and unique texture of the travertine create a captivating visual contrast, adding depth and character to the overall design. The cladding not only enhances the aesthetics but also provides durability and low maintenance, ensuring that the residence retains its elegance for years to come.
Beyond the innovative construction techniques and the elegant cladding, the Nagappa Residence boasts thoughtfully designed interior spaces. The filler slab design allows for spacious and uninterrupted living areas, creating a sense of openness and freedom. Natural light floods the rooms through strategically placed windows and skylights, further enhancing the bright and welcoming atmosphere.
The interior design of the residence complements contemporary architecture, utilizing clean lines, minimalist aesthetics, and a neutral colour palette. This creates a harmonious backdrop that allows the beauty of the travertine cladding and the surrounding environment to take centre stage.
