01. Thulasi (Exotica River Edge 01)

This room is on the first floor of Munkudil. Thulasi is the sacred basil which is grown for religious reasons at Hindu households across India and has many medicinal properties as well.
At Munkudil, our entire first floor is made of natural red stones from Kannur, one of the northern districts in Kerala. Red stones have been an integral part of Kerala’s traditional architecture. The lintels and arches are made by the skilled artisans from Kannur who stayed back here for months together bringing back Kerala’s glorious traditional architecture to life.
The load-bearing technology was shaped up from these natural stones that brings out a unique beauty and look to the construction.
Watch out for the lotus pond artwork by the famous artist Lenin C P. It took him over 20 days to carve out a large single piece of wood into this beauty on site.
