airbnb at kovalam beach, chennai

This site located on Cove long beach was a key point of inspiration. It is one of the several Blue Flag beaches of India, and keeping in line with this idea, we conceptualised the entire site as a terrarium, one teeming with a tropical landscape. The architecture is a contemporary space within the lush greens, with diverse forest plant species.

The design of the built space is perceived as a fabric of ‘new and modern’ wrapped around a core of ‘traditional structures’, co-existing harmoniously. The airbnb of 7000 sq ft area, comes with one 3 bedroom and one 2 bedroom villa, and auxillary service spaces. All the bedrooms are planned on the ground level with access to private courtyards, while the living spaces are planned on the upper level, with a pool to provide views of the beach from the property.
