The project is located in the outskirts of a Tier 2 city of India. The design caters to clients aspiration of a small weekend abode to spent time with his family and friend. The USP of the project is light weight multi layer roof with no concrete for better insulation over a set of load bearing brick walls. It works very well in all seasons also saving cost, resources and unwanted load on the structure.

Fundamentals of design like shading glass and vertical surfaces from direct sun rays, letting wind flow across the premises, use of natural and local material, getting the services right and incorporating local art and craft was a natural way forward.

With defined seasons and weather conditions in Indian subcontinent at large, the indoor-outdoor connect or the use of courtyard and/or veranda as the integral living space is all that a designer needs to weave in. Vegetation plays and important roll to the sense of sound, touch, taste and smell to a profession which is largely considered as a visual field.
