Hello everyone, I'm starting this blog to document the start of possibly the biggest projects in my life: Building my house.
The title of the blog comes from a Tamil saying which toughly translates as "Run a wedding, build a house. Then talk."
Where are we now? My wife and I have been working with a fantastic architect over the last year and a bit. We finally got the plan approved by the BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike - Bangalore's Municipality), after waiting for months and a little oiling of the squeaky wheels.
We've got a contractor waiting and we're on our way. YAY!
I'll be updating this with pictures and more as we go along.
Here's what the site looked like before any construction started.
It's a south west corner plot, and this is what is looks like from that corner.
And here it is from the south east corner.
The site is pretty rocky, so we had to test where the rocks start. Hence the holes.
That's the starting point.
