Farm house for Professor Kumarasamy's family is a weekend retreat, a 75 Sqm house, with one bedroom.

The most striking feature of this house is its elongated central courtyard, which divides central space into a lobby and living room.

This courtyard is designed to harvest rainwater, and can hold water during summers to cool the house down without using air conditioning.

With usage of locally available soil for the construction and traditional design style for front porch, and sitout at back, the doors and windows also follow a similar classic style.
