Ksaraah Residence by Taliesyn

Ksaraah is a weekend retreat located in the rural parts of Bangalore designed by Indian architecture firm Taliesyn. Ensconced in a cocoon of lush vegetation, featuring both coconut and areca palms, this project by Taliesyn aims to reimagine both the private and the social dimensions of living in nature, fostering a direct connection with the natural world whilst at the same time, protecting all its inhabitants.

Taliesyn’s Monsoon House

Indian architectural studio Taliesyn built Monsoon House in Kerala, a luxurious, generously sized single-family home: 3500 square metres on two levels, with a total of four double bedrooms. The project strives to achieve cleanliness of form, with a great variety of materials, patterns and furnishings creating an air of elegant opulence. The home’s large size permits inclusion of a number of spaces and services, including an indoor pool, a gym, a home theatre, two lifts, a dance floor, a massage centre and a banqueting hall. The painstaking design, the resources used and the refined diversity that go into Taliesyn’s Monsoon House make it the dream home of any Indian household, though of course not everyone could afford it.
