Apartment Complex, Ernakulam

A G+3 residential development of sixteen 2BHK homes, each held under 700 square feet without ever feeling small. Through disciplined planning, cross-ventilation, and a soft material palette, the complex proves that affordability and generosity can share the same address.

How we approached it

The process behind Apartment Complex, Ernakulam

01Understand

02Define

With both architecture and interiors in scope, we set a clear target: maximise usable area, admit daylight from two sides in every unit, and let cross-ventilation do the work of mechanical cooling — all within the compact footprint.

03Design

Four units per floor wrap a shared core, keeping each apartment narrow enough for light to penetrate fully. Interiors follow a soft, simple language — pale surfaces, clean junctions, and openings placed to chase the day's light across the room.

04Refine

We pressure-tested every plan against the 700-square-foot ceiling, trimming wasted circulation and merging functional zones until each home felt generous. Material junctions were simplified for clean construction and lower cost.

05Deliver

Architectural drawings, interior layouts, and a buildable material schedule were packaged for the contractor — clear enough to execute without guesswork across all sixteen units.

06Support

Through construction we reviewed the first typical floor as a prototype, settled details before the remaining three were repeated, and stayed available to resolve the questions that only surface on site.
