'Saradha nivas' - A posh residence that I had designed in the year 2004 for Mr.Jawahar at Pandikoil, Madurai. The client was very particular on following vastu principles for planning and wanted a modern yet classical design...and also a sloped roof! The client also had lavish tastes for high-end finishes, teak wood work, Italian marble and furniture, imported fittings, Spanish tiles and many other exquisite materials. The builder was our mutual friend Mr.Balan and it was a memorable construction journey along with Mr.Jawahar and Mr.Balan as we traveled and spent a lot of time together in sourcing materials. It was an interesting experience in my early career.
