Built out of Earth and Debris, this Eco-Friendly Home is a Work of Art (Home Tour).
On the outskirts of Tamil Nadu, and a 90-minute drive away from Bengaluru, is a village called Shoolagiri that is known for its eco-friendly community called Sanctity Ferme. To promote their vision of a natural ecosystem, sustainable model homes were planned for the residents. Flintstone6 is first of many such eco-friendly prototypes, designed to blend with the scenic untouched landscapes of the region.
#GlassInDesign is a series presented by Saint Gobain (@SaintGobainIndiaGlassBusiness ) in association with #Buildofy
Design and construction during the thick of the pandemic posed a limitation that eventually became Flintstone6’s strength – the use of minimal materials all obtained from nature itself. It is part of the landscape itself. Each space in this 1935 sq.ft. home is connected to the outdoors, with natural cross ventilation and a dynamic palette of light and shadow patterns constant throughout the day.

The poured earth debris walls, inverted stair room, and washrooms inside the bedrooms are some key highlights of the project. Principal Architect walks us through the home, insightfully breaking down the material palette as well as the design challenges that give this sustainable home an edge over most in this country.
