mr sam kumar s residence
c o n c e p t :
we want to create a special place for the highly stressed up i.t. professionals , for the guest who enters our premises.. we do not want it to be like any other hotel or a guest house, continuously reminding that they r away from home...... we feel when some one travels from airport to our place , he or she should feel a totally different ambience.it should be like a oasis....be like entering a natural resort or rain forest ..... a quiet setting...where the person , the nature and a very silent architecture alone should exist the aspects attached to the materialistic world like money, fame , fancy elements all that should fade and vanish people need to get down from the car at the entry itself[ the luggages will be taken care by the staff}..... and walk towards the entry to our guest house thro the , gently raised natural mound which is covered with touch of vegetation , but, the whole plaza will be covered with a large sheet of tranquil, meditative quality of water, filled with golden lilies and green shiny leaves,
pl see it in the slide show format pl refer the water temple in japan by the renowned japanese architect tadao ando in japan this water body shall have the visual continuity with our swimming pools,like in the works of the great sri lankan architect , geoffery bawa ,in all his beautiful hotels where he ties the swimming pools with surrounding sea by visual continuity when the reach the entry to our guest house thro this walk thro water bodt ,they will be surprised by a cascade , a sheet of water receiving them, they view ,cherish, then enter into our bldg, pl see the link below
