InLe Architects, led by founder Afiz Ubaid, has unveiled House Beyond the Mango Trees in Kannur, Kerala—a serene residential retreat that transforms two mature mango trees into architectural anchors.

The home’s restrained material palette—natural wood, stone, and earth-toned finishes—complements the lush surroundings while emphasizing minimal environmental impact.
