The client brief was to design a modest family house, though unique and exemplary in style. A huge lawn was intended as a inherent part of the house. Keeping their requirement and brief in view, a design approach was conceived as combination of understated luxury, simplicity and diversity.
The entry of the house is form exact NORTH, though a wide driveway, that leads to the drop-off parallel to the front lawn, at Entrance Porch.
The main entrance facing East, gives a beautiful gist of the house and the front lawn at once and also gains enough depth to perceive the structure, as a whole. The Entrance foyer occupies the center stage in the house as it subtly connects the double ht. lobby that gives an overwhelming feel. This creates an effortless division of home into distinct formal, informal & private spaces.
The Ground Floor level, comprises of Formal Living & Dining Room on one side (along N-NW zone).
The other side encompasses informal areas Family lounge & Bed Rooms (NE-SE zone), that flanks the lawn in the front.
The Kitchen is placed besides the staircase in (SE & S) portion of the house.
A suspended Metal screen against the staircase, is the main elementary feature of the house.
The first level is planned as a private floor that holds studio room, private lounge, Bar area, Son’s bedroom and a guest bedroom with attached balconies and terraces, that overlocks the garden. The store room entry in the south is concealed with a sliding panel door finished in leatherette.
The large glazing has been introduced in the N-NW façade to optimize day light while the South & SE faces has been kept impenetrable, with tubular slit windows. A mini-court with skylight is also provided along the dining that adds calmness to the space.
The Second floor occupies the Gym/Recreational Area, against an open terrace. The Servant room is also provisioned, with separate access from the rear court.
A unique alliance of materials and textures exhibits a fluent relation of individuality in all interior elements. All interior of the private spaces has been fashioned in extensively well thought accented homogeneous neutral color, wood & metal.
Accents of wood reflected in ceiling and in conjunction with Metal Partition besides the staircase & dining, are the bespoke interior elements. Interiors are further enhanced by Beige-Grey Italian Marble flooring and the complementary stone wall.
The FAÇADE has a bold statement and leaves a dominating mark in the surroundings.
