What is better, traditional home or new concrete home?

Home is a dream of everyone as home is everything for us. Traditional home means home built in traditional way. There are many ways to construct homes; differ from place to place. Just take the case of kerala traditional buildings. Wood plays major roles in traditional kerala homes. The marvelous design of these buildings draws thousands and majority of these houses has been converted to staying places for tourists. The traditional design itself bring some sort of positive energy for the people living there. These houses has been constructed by considering many factors including that of nature. The concept of 'vASTU' plays a major role here. The customs like ' land puja', has major role before constructing these traditional homes.

People started to think different as they started to demolish traditional homes and construct new concrete buildings. The new concreted buildings are not eco friendly like the typical traditional homes. But people are more crazy and started thinking differently. Today there is technician in every segment of construction. Interior designing itself has many branches. A variety of option, not everything eco friendly like in traditional homes. And the result is

The cost of preserving the traditional style is expensive and brings more inconvenience. That provoke people to demolish traditional homes and construct new concrete buildings. Anyway the recent trend is not appreciable as the identity itself will lost if the process continues.

Just remember that it is not easy to reconstruct traditional homes. So we should our monuments and traditional buildings as far as possible as it is the duty towards next generation. Every homeowners seriously think on it before going to demolish your old and lively home. And building contractors will teach you some lesson if you started constructing new concrete buildings. So beware dear and remember OLD IS GOLD
