Located in the busy heart of Mannarkad town, "Lael" is a tranquil retreat designed by Barefoot Architects and executed by Glenearth Constructions, recently featured in ArchDaily magazine

The home was crafted to provide a peaceful escape from city life, set on a site naturally buffered by its elevation and distance from the road. Inspired by the site's conditions, the design integrates lush landscaping within the built environment, creating a tropical oasis. The centerpiece is a central double-height gathering space that floods the home with natural light and ventilation. A single sloping roof and natural materials like wood and Kota stone enhance the tropical theme, making "Lael" a perfect blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal.
