  • Located in Bengaluru, This Primary Residence Has Views Of The Lush Park Nearby | Keystone Studio

    [Sassy_Social_Share]

    Located in the upmarket gated community of Beverly Hills in Bengaluru, the house was designed as the primary residence of Mr. Prasanth and family, with the lush green park view serving as the major focus.

    The clients’ love for gardening inspired the design, with the home oriented toward the lush green community park, creating a seamless connection with nature and making the plot feel larger through the borrowed openness of the park.

    The living area, elevated above the street, opens to the park through generous windows on two sides, while the basement quietly tucks away the car parking, leaving the greenery uninterrupted and filling the space with light.

    The interiors of this primary residence were kept subtle with plain white walls as primary base and a contrast of wooden floors. The result is a home where every space is connected to light, nature, and a sense of calm.

    primary residence

    Nestled within the leafy calm of Bengaluru’s exclusive Sammy’s Beverly Hills gated community, this 8,000 sq ft residence rises gently from a 4,000 sq ft plot, thoughtfully oriented to embrace uninterrupted views of a 1.5-acre community park. 

    primary residence

    Elevated above the street and removed from the city’s rush, the home is as much about tranquility as it is about openness.

    For a fun-loving family of three transitioning from apartment living to an independent home, the brief was deeply personal. Gardening, togetherness, and the need for spaces that felt private yet connected shaped every decision. What they sought was not scale, but meaning – a home that would grow with them.

    Design Led by Understanding, Trust, and Time

    Rather than beginning with drawings, the architect began with conversations. Informal meetings – sometimes at home, sometimes at the office – became the foundation for understanding how the family lived, gathered, and retreated. Private yet deeply bonded, quality-driven and rooted in everyday rituals, their lifestyle slowly revealed itself.

    primary residence

    This unhurried process unfolded over two years, allowing trust to take root and a professional relationship to evolve into friendship. As one reflects, “Perhaps that’s why I understood him more as a person than as a project.” 

    The result is a primary residence that feels instinctive – designed not just for its inhabitants, but with them.

    A Material Story of Quiet Strength

    Durability and understated elegance guide the material palette. At the heart of the home lies reclaimed wood salvaged from a 90–100-year-old house in Gujarat. Rich with history and character, it has been reimagined across the residence – sliced into flooring, recrafted into the main door, and shaped into pergolas – creating a seamless thread of continuity and warmth.

    primary residence

    Large-format matte vitrified tiles minimise joints and visual noise, while the absence of high-gloss finishes ensures a calm, tactile environment. Walls remain restrained in soft greys and neutral tones, allowing furniture, recliners, and curated artworks to introduce moments of colour and personality.

    Architecture That Frames the Landscape

    Raised five to six feet above road level, the ground floor cleverly screens out traffic while framing the park as a continuous green panorama. Expansive north-facing windows – rising up to 20 feet – invite soft, consistent daylight into dramatic double-height volumes.

    Every primary space – the living and dining areas, open kitchen, and all four bedrooms – opens towards the park, ensuring a constant dialogue with nature. The architecture dissolves boundaries, turning the landscape into an ever-present backdrop to daily life.

    Interiors Designed for Everyday Joy

    The interiors are guided by flow, inclusion, and ease. An open kitchen encourages conversations that spill effortlessly into living spaces. Recliners paired with an analogue Macintosh amplifier transform the living room into a relaxed music lounge, while a flexible ground-floor room adapts seamlessly for puja, yoga, or work.

    Artworks sourced from Simmi Prasanth’s gallery lend colour and individuality, while thoughtfully placed outdoor extensions enrich daily rituals – the northern dining deck for unhurried breakfasts, the terrace and garden for quiet pauses, and a lounging gazebo that becomes the setting for evening conversations.

    Key Design Features

    • Column-free basement parking designed to accommodate large vehicles
    • A generous, open-plan ground floor with double-height spaces and fluid indoor–outdoor transitions
    • A shaded dining deck ideal for family meals and morning tea
    • Multiple private outdoor zones including terrace, garden, kitchen extension, and lounging gazebo

    More than a residence, this home is a layered experience – one that celebrates light, landscape, material memory, and the simple pleasures of living well together.
