This tropical style house with stunning views of the Genting peaks in the distance located in Jandabaik was artistically designed by Architects MJ Kanny to perch on a piece of land jutting atop a hill. The challenge was to preserve the natural beauty and have a abode that blends into its surroundings so the front elevation was created on stilts to preserve the steep slope and trees around the site. As per the client specifications the architects created a BBQ region with a pavilion on one edge of the site and also a rain water retention tank to irrigate the 1 acre site.

Sustainable design elements like wind chimneys and large windows were applied to ensure that mountain air wafts into the house during hot summer months keeping the interiors naturally cool. Glazed windows keep away harsh sunlight while providing stunning views of the hills and valleys before the house. The residence is a symbol of luxury and comfort with eclectic fusion of muted colors spread in every part of the house. Using natural elements to beautify the ceilings in every room of the house, the designers have designed every section with painstaking detail.

Let us explore some some private and public parts of the house in this exclusive tour…
