Indian Bungalow Design | Vyanjan Kale Associates.
We were commissioned to renovate an existing Ground + 2 floor bungalow with a family of 5 members. The bungalow was originally built in 2009. Over the period of time, the life style, needs and aspirations of client changed, their children grew up, so they realized their home needed a complete change to suit their today’s needs and taste. After visiting the site we suggested some changes in their ground floor plan. A lift block was added that would go up to 2 floors. Internal walls were removed, living room & dining area is converted in one space.
