Would you believe someone if they told you that Canon, Nikon, and Epson live in a house called "Click"? Well, its true! A Belagavi, Karnataka based couple took their passion for photography to the next level by not only naming their sons after camera brands but also building a house with the facade resembling a camera.
Photographer couple Ravi and Krupa Hongal got their house designed in the shape of an enormous DSLR camera. The team of interior designers and builders took two and a half years to construct this dream house that cost over Rs 71 lakhs to build.
According to Ravi, he developed an interest in photography in his late teens. Over the years, with his determination and hard work, he started his photography studio. His wife shared the same interest in photography and was the only person to support his decision to name their first son as Canon. They continued the trend of naming their children after camera brands, and their two sons as Nikon and Epson. And now they own a camera-shaped house which they proudly call "Click".
Each floor of this three-storey house has specific features that represent their three sons. The first floor symbolises an Epson printer, the second has the design of a Nikon camera, and the third floor has the flash of a Canon camera. The house features fascinating architecture mostly inspired by a camera and other related parts.
The house is adorned by a colossal camera lens that works as a circular window of the kitchen countertop. Windows of the bedrooms visible from outside have the shape of a flash and memory card. Moreover, railings of the front balcony take the shape of a reel. It is interesting to notice minute details of the house, even the interiors, that incorporate various elements of the camera like memory cards, film rolls and logos of camera brands.
The couple never thought that pictures of their unique-shaped house would go viral but they are happy to be in the spotlight all across the country.
