Project overview

This project involved the complete planning, construction, and finishing of a multi-storey residential building with stilt parking. The structure features modern architectural elements such as cantilevered balconies, layered façade treatments, recessed lighting, and ornamental railings. The exterior showcases a clean combination of neutral-toned wall cladding, textured finishes, and stone inlays. Interior spaces include false ceiling lighting, marble/tile flooring, modular kitchens, wooden joinery, and custom-designed windows and doors. The layout prioritizes ventilation, aesthetics, and functional circulation across all floors. Night lighting adds a premium, high-end visual appeal to the exterior, ensuring the building stands out in its locality.

Challenge

  • Soil and Foundation Planning
    Designing and executing a stable foundation system on Perumbakkam soil conditions required accurate load assessment and deep structural planning.

  • Structural Coordination for Cantilevers & Projections
    The extended balconies and façade projections demanded precision in reinforcement, shuttering, and load distribution without compromising safety.

  • Material Sourcing and Uniform Finishes
    Achieving consistent exterior cladding, railing details, flooring, and door-window finishes across all units required strict material quality control.

  • Working in a Developing Neighborhood
    Limited road access, utility connections, and coordination with surrounding plots introduced logistical and scheduling restrictions.

  • Integration of Aesthetics with Durability
    Balancing modern looks with long-term maintenance—especially for exterior surfaces exposed to heat and rain—required special attention to coatings and waterproofing.
