Mr Indika Thilakaratne’s Residence at Piliyandala

This stunning two-story living area is the ideal combination of efficient design and artistic expression. It was a fresh experience for Roshan Senaratne, who was always experimenting with different architectural styles and components.

To create a calm atmosphere, wide spaces and enormous wall-height windows are used throughout the design. The seamless integration of historical feature components with contemporary design assures sensual richness, providing a signature flair to the living area. The fittings and fixtures, as well as the furnishings, were custom-designed to complement the building and tastefully accent the various portions. Timber characteristics are frequently integrated on both its inside and outside to suit the client’s preferences. Because they are built of reclaimed wood, the wooden columns that support the eaves of the main facade are particularly intriguing.

This dream residence is the epitome of luxury living, with stylish wooden-floored minimalist bedrooms, an entertainment section, an elegant dining area, a fully equipped modern pantry, a separate kitchen, an expensive balcony, a simply secluded concourse designed for leisurely outdoor gatherings with family and friends, a manicured front garden, and parking space.

The residence is exquisite yet basic since it was designed and built on a 20-perch plot of ground with a wide front facade facing the front main garden. The roof’s prolonged overhang, which is supported by horizontal and angular timber supports at varying angles, adds to the facade’s elegance.

Despite being close to the city, this three-story residence overlooks large paddy fields on the outskirts of Colombo and is situated in a beautiful and quiet environment, which was the major reason for choosing this location.
