Brick House in Mysuru by Architecture Paradigm

PROJECT FACT FILE:
Name: Brick House
Location: Mysuru, Karnataka
Year of Completion: 2016
Plot Area: 3,800 sq.ft
Built-up Area: 3,100 sq.ft
Project Cost: 4,500 per sq.ft
Architecture & Interiors: Architecture Paradigm
Principal Architects: Sandeep J, Late. Vimal Jain and Manoj Ladhad
DESCRIPTION:
An L shaped plan form helps us organize the diverse programmatic concerns of a house for a family of four which is amalgamation of function and desires; individual vs collective, public vs private, formal vs informal, immediacy vs slowness, largeness vs intimate, openness vs security etc. The shorter arm along the east west direction houses the public spaces whereas the longer arm along the north south direction over two levels houses the more private needs of the house .The L shaped plan also helped us appropriate the unbuilt into an identifiable private rear courtyard or the outdoor room and the transitional forecourt addressing the street. The private courtyard can be seen as an anchor around which the house works. These spaces extend out into the this outdoor room which is treated as a pleasure garden punctuated with water, trees and decks encouraging informal engagement with the natural. Open spaces along the west is integrated into the longer arm blurring the boundaries between inside and the outside.
This organizational relationship of the built with the open spaces signifies our design intent of outdoors forming a integral and a crucial part of the living experience. Open spaces become counterpoints to the serial nature of the urban subdivided neighborhood where open spaces are usually about residues as a result of byelaws and the land is treated as an commodity to be exploited.
The house is designed to bring in a sense of intimacy and connection through subtle changes in the scales of the various spaces. We looked at the material of modernity, reinforced concrete forming the armature along with the traditional brick forming walls, floors , screens and vaults defining the spaces bringing in a sense of warmth. Privacy and security screens are made with brick and mild steel flats ,here the slenderness of the steel flat and its tendency to bend over long lengths is addressed with brick spacers which stiffens and integrates the individual flats to create unique textural surface. Fabricated steel stair over the skylight along the western wall leading to the terrace is detailed to enable maintenance of the skylight glass below it, Here the tread is detailed to incorporate a swiveling mechanism to allow for the access to the glass beneath it. All of this is complemented by harnessing natural light to create experiences and spaces the family can identify with and cherish.

We stay just parallel to this house and always keen to visit. The owner of this house were so kind and humble they allowed us to have a home tour. It's a masterpiece in a nutshell. I was very much impressed, I had taken your business card as well. Hope to work soon

[@Radhakrishnan]

I live in Mysore. Can you please tell me where it is located.

Can you pls share the exact location, need to visit and meet the owners

[@francescabremner9248]

This is a house with a soul. Quietly beautiful.

[@explorewithkriti8374]

It's always interesting to see these type of projects. It reminds me of a village & small town houses which is our real culture & tradition as well.

[@booksbee2507]

What can someone ask for more... This HOUSE is just a master pc.... Love to tk house tour though... 💕💕💕😍

[@jon-snow-GOT]

This channel has so many nice houses. Please include more images/video of the actual house or the architect can show the structures in the house instead of sketching on paper so we can get a better understanding.

[@CAP753]

At the face of it the space may appear to have been 'wasted' but it does impart a sense of tranquility to the structure, what we call Skoon in Urdu.

[@abhishekparida666]

Very unusual, innovative, beautiful project. Talented architects.

[@KrithikShanmugam]

If there is house tour ...this video will be even more better .and itll b helpfull ... but still this video is great

[@abhinav7506]

📍I really liked how seamlessly they separated public space (drawing room) from private room (drawing room, bedroom etc)

[@adrianaalmeida8691]

Amazing project, excellent solutions, beautiful and inspiring house! Would be nice to balance the architect interview with a tour in the house, showing the fluid circulation and the details while he is talking.

[@ajitfdiaz]

I must compliment everyone in your team from Architecture paradigm for this fabulous design and execution. I like the simplicity yet the exquisite use of brick and attention to detail. I like the thought process on not being too loud, yet make a classy statement. Well done guys. I will be in touch with you soon for this project i plan to start on soon near the beach in Chennai.

[@chetana4677]

Ajit Diaz . Sir, this is Chetana. I am planning to work with architecture paradigm for a residential project. I wanted to know your experience with the team. Is there any way I can talk to you? Thank you in advance.

Improve these things: 1) increase your mic volume. 2) Need more picture of interior.

Also the background music is really cartoonish which completely goes against the mood of the the building

Looks so cool and unique! I love the indoor outdoor feel and that "atrium"! Wish I could see more.

[@johnsontan2062]

how nice it is to use the servent rooms to buffer the house from the Western sun. the servents besides doing the works around the house....they also have to take the heat literally.

[@johnsontan2062]

is it so politically incorrect to say such a thing....these days.

[@piyush9775943294]

Absolutely amazing design

[@yashwantsharma3242]

Great job 👏

[@vidyam1901]

Very interesting and it's heartening to note now people and architects are moving towards natural building.... It really helps the environment and us ...In turn .... The cost factor is something that needs to be addressed....It's organic and natural ....Doesn't have to be exorbitant .... Nice work nonetheless...👍

[@garnetgun]

We Architects have always been captain planet type of people, it's the commercial side of architecture that's what getting these perceptions.

[@ninadprabhune4789]

Really clever use of space and natural environment. Simple and beautiful 👍

[@arlenerodrigues5816]

The architect explained it so well...loved the house too!

[@ahmedzyed2499]

Great, especially since it takes into account the environment and hot weather conditions.

[@aniruddhgandhi27]

Superb project. Bricks are looking very different and especially made to order for the project I think ...Cherry on the top was brick roof that was something which I love from my childhood... Superb brilliant ...but in these videos we also need to know the experience of owners living in the place

[@chandregowda8937]

Yeah, maintenance is an issue. Bangalore is a city of dust. Very good scope dust accumulation.outside is okie.but inside very much inconvenience to clean. Yes brick act as an insulator.. thermally.That is why all around Bangalore, village house are with bricks..

Extraordinary design 👌👍🏠

[@hemanthkumarng9039]

The entire house, plan, architecture are all good, but except one thing.. i.e. Pooja area, which almost arranged under the stairs, which I feel not correct.. But, otherwise, house looks so quiet, pleasant and peaceful. One would love to spend some quality time here

[@diablovalley]

Dear Buildofy, please include a walk through of the entire house in your videos.

[@Kannada_First]

Very innovative... but ₹4500 /sq.ft is very very very expensive for such a simple structure. Does that include the land price too??

[@rajakeerthyramesh2384]

I know someone who spent almost 3 crores for a 3 bed home in 3 floors in a 40x60 plot with a true home theatre ... not surprised

[@DineshKumar-nv2tb]

for 4500/sq.ft... we can build two of these houses.. excluding land price

[@ArunKumar-yr4ht]

4500sft is very expensive double the cost for this house

[@prathameshchavan2812]

Best house I've ever seen considering all the things

[@asabhas]

I would suggest watching Houzz or Architectural Digest. A vedio tour is much more suitable for the viewers.

[@dimitpap2947]

Congratulations. Advanced architecture.

It's a classy design. video does not show the interior of the house for clients viewing, which would be nice to see? have a plot of 4800 sqft. what would be the estimated project cost per square feet for a 4000 sq ft (architecture+construction and interior) ground plus 1 floor? please respond to this initial query?

Great video and good work

[@Alehasan_Khan]

with respect to material and interior this house can be built under 2000/sqft 4500/sqft is way to much for this house. this is 3bhk with one extra drawing room. landscaping and design is nice but still this is very costly. owner is cheated by architect/contractor. I am civil engineer and doing work in residential line also we have our team of contractors. so i can say. we can build this house under 60L.

[@prashanthmp1819]

Hi, Can you share your number? I have a few queries.

[@TheStig.]

If it was built for 2000/sqft we wouldn't be watching a video of it being featured here. People need to understand the value of design first and then make such statements.

[@Noor-vx8gl]

Do you have any prior experience working in Bangladesh?

[@MrRajnambiar]

Great design !!

[@princetia8530]

Nice one... But the square feet price includes what and all..does it include the cost of putting up the total house, including construction and interiors.. Land apart of course...or only for the construction - interiors and land is extra.. please reply...

[@murlijames]

What's the construction cost & what kind of materials used. Being mysorean what to know for my construction

[@himanshu20rocky]

All good however new-age architects must use digital tools to doodle these drawings rather than wasting so much paper. Environment will bless u

[@honeykutti5720]

06:32 how does the brick wall supported above the opening.. no lintel is used there?

[@CobiSimon]

There is a lintel in that opening. The brick has been cladded onto the lintel

[@shrirajs.doifode152]

brick cadding is done over there to hide the RCC lintel.

Really impressive. Aesthetic design. I have a plot more 25 x 65 in a prime area. I thought of selling it and buying a big plot. After seeing your design I have changed my opinion and knew people are there who could do wonders in small space. Will you be able to take the project sir. I will contact you shortly.

[@BhanuPrakash-nk1fk]

Site is aprox 50×80(4000sq feet) Most of the Indian middle class buy 30×40; provide design for such space; all these videos are for rich people ; its of no use for us

[@Jeevanmn]

These guys are running a business for people who can afford the service of these architects. They aren't putting out these videos for your benefit.

@bhanu why are you just complaining?? Work towards making your life more worthwhile!

Understand.. You guys are trying to showcase the Architectural concept in a short video, but at least take a moment to show the House properly, you can leave the link to the design and details in a link or PDF, but how does one appreciate the architecture without having seen the structure properly!!
