This west-facing house, set to be built on a rectangular plot measuring 55’ x 24’ in Akkaraipattu, Eastern Province, is thoughtfully designed for the region’s hot and humid climate. Located in a challenging climatic zone, the design incorporates strategies to reduce heat gain while maintaining functionality and aesthetic appeal.
The front façade features a brick jali wall combined with conventional lintel shading to minimize heat penetration. These elements effectively shield the central indoor spaces during the daytime while adding a distinct visual contrast to the white exterior. The reddish tones of the brick jali juxtaposed with the polished concrete shading enhance the building’s exterior charm, creating a harmonious blend of practicality and style.
Structurally, the house is optimized with minimal columns, beams, and reinforcement, reducing construction costs while maintaining safety and architectural comfort. This efficient structural design supports the sustainability goals of the project, ensuring a balance between strength and resourcefulness.
Overall, the house is a unique response to the client’s vision, blending sustainable practices with functional and aesthetic considerations. The result is a distinctive and environmentally responsive living space that caters to both the climatic conditions and the client’s desire for individuality.
