Manasu

Location: Devanahalli, Bangalore

Tucked into the rolling green landscape of Devanhalli, Manasu blurs the lines between nature and man-made. A modern home, the project is a wonderful demonstration of Mahan Architects’ ability to enhance a property through sustainable architecture and green housing standards.

Though the house blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings, it also succeeds in taking on a unique and bold appearance, courtesy of a series of facades and rooftops that jut out of the design. The living space on the ground floor opens up to a “green” swimming pool that embraces its exquisite garden and panoramic woodland views.

The modernity of the exterior extends to the interior as well. Double-height ceilings, elegant walls and marble floors run through the home, enhanced by an abundance of natural light. Comprising substantial living accommodation and five bedrooms across three floors, the property is the perfect amalgamation of nature and urban living.
