The Allawala residence is an example of how unique features in a home can work together in a cohesive design. The owner being a designer herself, wanted a beautiful house that would reflect the creative personality, one she could decorate. The exterior pavements merge seamlessly with grassy areas, giving the space an expansive feel. The interior wooden flooring melds into the marble and granite.
The upper and lower levels are visually connected through a floating glass slab. Two sails shade the swimming pool from direct sun rays, allowing for year-round utility. Large windows allow the interior to be well lit, and ensure the garden is seen from all angles. They also provide views of the swimming pool from living spaces.
