Velmani Residence by shelters design madurai

The central feature of this house is a freestanding double height staircase -finished with wooden cladding over steel tread that divides the living and dining areas, and culminates in a roof with strategically positioned skylights on either side. A CNC cut-outs and motifs in the skylight allows orienting play of shadows east - west to capture the arc of the sun, and bathe the wall with an ever-changing dance of natural light.
