“The artful composition of wood, white and concrete makeup for an all-time favorite facade. The oneness of the elevation, the metal shade, and the wide fenestrations only add more grandeur.”- Nishal Sevak(Co-Editor)
The site is located in the residential area of Udaipur with views on all four sides. The brief of the project was to construct a contemporary family home with G+1 structure. This residence building is well equipped with all the modern amenities such as gymnasium, home theatre, SPA etc. The house also boasts an expansive green area with out-door seating which gives this house its unique identity. The owners and the Architect worked together closely to create a residence with clean contemporary lines, Asian-influenced design elements, and modernist look.

To enable the visual connection from inside out, a large double heighted drawing room with glass partition is planned right on the entrance that gives the space grandeur yet feels welcoming reflecting the underlying concept of the whole house.
In concrete and steel, with a flat roof, the structure uses modern building materials inside and out, and deliberately breaks from traditional residential materials and design.
A large drawing room greets us as we enter the building. It has a 15-foot glass wall and a 15-foot ceiling, which give the space a sense of grandeur.
In the middle of the house, a double-height living hall connects the formal and informal areas of the home.
To give residents privacy, the dining and kitchen areas are elevated, and a jali is designed between the living and dining areas.
A deck is designed above the drawing room which is placed at the corner of the building which gives the overall view to the site with beautiful landscape and gardening.
The interior for this project is designed which is open, crisp, and minimal.. The ruled out lawns and landscaping, decks and patios — the outside is appreciated from the interior.
Client wanted the house filled with light and sun, especially in winter, when they hoped it might enter “with as much force as possible”. This project defines not just a residence, but a dream home for Team VGA.
