Purva Somerset House in Guindy, Chennai is designed by world renowned Hadi Teherani

The facade of Purva Somerset House in Guindy, Chennai has been designed to create an international and timeless architectural statement taking inspiration from traditional design elements of Tamil Nadu and global design trends creating a unique solution. It is inspired by the geometry of intricate patterns of the traditional handmade Chettinad tiles which have been reimagined and translated into modern jaali patterns and cladding design elements, thereby giving it a strong character rooted in rich heritage.

Care has been taken to address concerns of hot tropical climate by providing jaalis, chhajjas and appropriate glazing. Jaali's on the balconies offer shading and privacy, without compromising on the grand views of the racecourse across, while chhajjas and balconies provide natural shading and protection from rain. The skin walls and facade treatment tie up the building geometry into a bold clean form where each tower is defined by an envelope with stone cladding to bring in the warm touch of natural materials. In short, Purva Somerset House will be nothing short of magical.
