Editor’s note : Nestled in its urbanscape, a  modern house with contemporary interiors welcomes onlookers to an intriguing view.

The site amid the cacophony of an urban cluster and roads around, with captivating volumetric arrangements that makes it appealing in a go.

Revealing very little about itself, the house creates a surprising impression in onlookers’ minds. The blend of the geometrics and exposed bricks gives a discrete look to the abode while enchanting openings on the facade excite one to discover what the structure is all about.

The designer came across contrasting ideas from different generations of the family that hovered over modern and traditional with a very bold statement from the homeowners stating that “Spaces should not be put together for show but to nourish one’s well-being” formed the basis of the design philosophy.

Come to think of it, modern homes of today are every bit in line with design trends, and are also able to adroitly balance aesthetics and functionality. But what it sometimes requires is the touch of belonging and traditional Indian elegance that hails from handcrafted furniture, locally sourced materials, and artifacts.

This home of 6000 Sq. ft for a joint family in Nashik is a complete transition from chaotic city life to peaceful contemporary space. It effortlessly captures the spirit of an outdoor-indoor design and gives a bungalow feel in an apartment.

The planning owes its flexibility to the wholesome and meticulous area program. Similar to the hierarchy of spaces like the public, semi-public and private spaces in this structure are organized clearly.

The spatial arrangements of the space divide all the public areas such as living, kitchen, dining and 2 bedrooms on the ground floor, and private areas such as other bedrooms and the family area is planned on the upper floor.

The approach for interiors was to fuse modern and traditional morals. The design exceptionally strikes the charisma of the Traditional Rajasthani Indian essence in the form of louvered windows, paintings, dyed veneer in combination with wood. This ethnicity of the furnishings softens the sturdy and raw look cast by the bare bricks.

To summarize, the design elements included space, line, forms, light, colour, texture, and pattern; and keeping them balanced was the key to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing space.

This residence crafted speaks a fluent urban language with its design inspired from the concept of modern homes with traditional feel crafted to epitomize grandeur with easy-chic living.

Project THE NEST feels like an escape to tranquillity from day-to-day turmoil.
