Tropical Architecture Kerala

JKM DESIGN CONSORTIUM is a leading architectural and engineering consultancy office in INDIA, and has professional experience spanning more than four decades. JKMDC is popularly known for its unique style of Architecture which Blends with the surroundings, environment, and context and in all designs, nature plays a vital role.
JKMDC has built a site of green buildings applicable specifically for tropical climates, using design to optimally reduce buildings' energy consumption, particularly the cooling load. The site had an abundant granite quarry behind at the top which was almost like a pond on top of a hill. There was a huge risk of seepage of water, which led to the concept of creating a raised platform and placing the house on top of it. The design process is emphasised by scale, character, spatial and visual impact.
