Sunrise homes for slow living.

The village

Eight homes that wake to the sunrise.

Every home opens to the morning, turned between east and north-east so it looks across its own lawn, never at a neighbour. Permanent walls and planted screens wrap each plot. Watch a day pass over the plan.

Placed for morning light and breeze

Turned 0–20° north of east · each faces its own lawn

Each house is turned so that, sitting in the living room, you look down the longest open stretch of your own garden and over the low wall into the commons. No two living rooms face each other. Shared walls carry bamboo and tree screens; windward walls are jaali, with high-canopy trees so the breeze passes underneath. Tap a plot to see its home.

The Residence

A small home that lives large.

About 1,100 ft² with two bedrooms. A 22 ft living room, lit from the east and the courtyard, sits beside a low kitchen; a spiral stair climbs to a gallery. The courtyard has a frangipani in a planted bed. The plunge pool sits on the deck, beside a covered veranda. Bedroom 01 opens onto a small walled garden. Bedroom 02 has a full-length west balcony behind timber louvres, and an open-sky bathroom on the terrace.

Walls are earthy lime plaster: warm beige and terracotta outside, warm white inside. Every room breathes in low from the west and south and out to the east, the courtyard and high louvres.
