Ilaiyanam House / Studio SKAI

Amongst a dense urban area in Chennai, Ilaiyanayam Residence lies on a corner plot of land in a residential neighborhood. Ilaiyanayam refers to ‘Texture’ from the language Tamil. The unique characteristics of this residence focus on the play of textures. Ilaiyanayam is an amalgamation of modern technology with traditional values. It is a poetic approach to articulate depth through juxtaposing and finding the right balance of space, void, light, textures, and materials creating a smooth transition in order to harmonize aesthetically and functionally in a meticulous way that stimulates different emotions in the residents who experience them. This design is achieved by being contemporary and minimalist while being in harmony with the traditional context of the site.
