The Rao Residence by DDIR Architecture Studio

Located in Hyderabad, India, The Rao Residence is perfectly suited for our Skim Milk column, but I just couldn’t wait until Thursday to post it.
Designed by DDIR Architecture Studio, this home has some great outdoor space perfect for entertaining or just relaxing after a hard day at work. I love the swing!































*drewl* I love white architecture like this, but I’ll never want to be responsible for the maintenance
White in India? That would be a nightmare to maintain or an army of servants:-)
There is too much going on here, if you want a simple color palette, then you need to stick with simple architectural forms otherwise the details get jumbled and lost into the background. I love the clean look, but the forms and details like mullions, columns, stairwells, steps, etc. need to be simplified so that they can be appreciated in this clean palette.
