	The Hindu : Echoing the poetic Malnad
		Kuvempu's home is a quintessential Malnad home in many ways, basically geared to brave the extreme monsoons that dominate half the year.
		In its stout walls, the low ceiling, and the clear compartmentalisation of the house (the inner house consisting of the kitchen, and the rooms for the family members and the outer portion accessible to all at all times), the Kuppalli home symbolises this typicality.
		It reminds one of the rich cultural heritage of the hills, and preserves, in spirit, Kuvempu's efforts to mirror the diversity in the hills of Malnad.
