Spaces Architects@KA has shared photos of a tall and narrow house they designed in New Dehli, India, that includes a large wall mural.
The colorful mural, which spans multiple floors, depicts a tree with leaves, flowers, and birds.
Interior walkways provide an unobstructed view of the mural, which adds color to the otherwise neutral interior, while a skylight provides natural lighting to the space.
Let’s take a look around the rest of the home…
The house has been designed for a family of five and is nestled within a small and slender site measuring 19 feet by 59 feet (6m by 18m).
The ground floor caters to formal engagements with a lounge, dining, and bar. A sculptural wood bench lines the wall, while a dining area transitions into the lounge and bar.
There’s also a formal living room with a decorative art piece on the wall.
The first floor of the home is designed according to the needs of the homeowner’s father with a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, a kitchen, and a puja space for moments of reflection and prayer.
The bedroom includes an artistic section of wall, while both the bedroom and bathroom have gold accents.
The puja room is decorated with patterned floor tiles and wallpaper.
The deliberate placement of cut-outs throughout the home ensures cross ventilation, allowing fresh breezes to weave through the house naturally. Skylights not only invite sunlight to dance across the surfaces but also reduce the need for artificial lighting during the day.
The second floor is tailored to the vibrant lives of the two daughters. It features bedrooms that reflect their personalities and aspirations, offering them individuality within the collective family home.
The third floor is for the homeowners and includes a bedroom, an en-suite bathroom with a patterned tile wall, and a study with a window seat.
