520 _aPerched on the edge of a mountain, The Ledge is a residence in Peeremedu that is designed based on a dream sequence. The inquisition that leads one to walk till the edge of a ridge or a child-like whim to jump from the top of a cliff can be attributed to a human desire to walk ahead into the clouds even after the mountain is over. Hence the building has been designed as a shard that seems to be protruding as an extension of the mountain into the air. Camouflaged within the natural landscape the roof and the external walls are made out of treated casuarina poles, which is a fast-growing tree. Its wood is considered as waste and used only for scaffolding and fencing. Here the long span casuarina-ferrocement composite roof is further supported in between with the help of casuarina trees planted at the onset of construction in the central courtyard of the house.
