All the furniture is made on-site or in local workshops, to fulfill the client’s requirements of custom shapes, color choices and a combination of materials. Knowing the client’s taste, requirements, budget range, and site constraints are how one designs and executes the design of a house. But, when the inputs in the start are deeper at the philosophical level and continued on all stages of the work, the house, in the end, becomes a remarkable and memorable home to live in.
