Titlie

Flowing away, like a butterfly.

Material Palette & Technique

Made with Mud and Care

Walls - Random Rubble

Site-sourced stone laid dry - no cement, no mortar except at key structural junctions.

Roofing - Bamboo

Locally grown bamboo - lightweight, fast-renewable, and naturally resistant to farm climate.

Soft Furnishing - Textile Waste

Factory offcuts are refurbished into shade panels, cushion covers, and surface linings.

Flooring - Sadarahalli Stone

The only element requiring cement - minimal use, laid in a single plane with wide joints.

Titlie is the lightest thing Landartistry has built, a gazebo and activity space on a farm, designed to be present enough to be useful and absent enough not to intrude. It is named after a butterfly: something that lands, rests, and leaves no mark.

The walls are random rubble of stones gathered from the site, laid without mortar in the lower sections. The roof is bamboo. The fittings and surfaces throughout the space are made from textile waste collected from a nearby factory, which is cut, sewn, and redeployed as shade panels, cushion covers, and wall hangings. There is no cement anywhere in the structure except under the Sadarahalli stone floor. The building is almost entirely reversible.

Impact & Experience

Second life, first principles

Footprint

Low impact, built with what exists. Reduced reliance on new materials, minimising extraction and transport.

Toxicity

Minimal, no paint, no synthetic layer. Poured earth and raw finishes keep the space breathable.

Ecology

Responsive, lantana transformed from invasive growth into functional craft.

Experience

Lived-in, materials arrive with memory, the space feels evolved, not newly made.
