This Four-Bedroom Home in Bangalore Integrates Nature | Tall Storeys Collaborative
“Nisarg” is a contemporary home nestled in the outskirts of Bangalore. The client’s desire was to live in a home where nature felt intimately intertwined with their daily lives. In response, we crafted a home with a seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces. Even when sitting indoors, nature makes its presence felt. The home feels private, yet open and filled with daylight and ventilated by natural breeze.
Integration with Nature: Each room effortlessly extends into its own private garden, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces.
At the heart of the residence lies the Great Room, a versatile space that invites the landscape inside, creating a seamless transition between interior and exterior. It is a space designed for quiet reflection and human connection. It’s where friends gather and cherished memories are nurtured. The 13-foot high sliding doors,
when unfurled, pose a poignant question: where does the interior end, and where does the exterior begin? The landscape melds effortlessly with the interior, evoking a profound sense of unity with the natural surroundings.
Nisarg’s sleek design and minimal aesthetics give the home a timeless quality, harmonizing with the natural environment to provide a tranquil retreat.
“Nisarg” embodies a design ethos that celebrates the surrounding environment, ensuring that every corner of the residence reflects a harmonious relationship with nature.
The design facilitates a fluid transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing inhabitants to immerse themselves in the beauty of the natural landscape from the comfort of their home.
Private Yet Open: While “Nisarg” offers seclusion and privacy, it also exudes an openness that invites the outdoors in, creating a welcoming atmosphere filled with natural light and fresh air.
Architecture : The aim was to define luxury and comfort using natural stone highlights of granite and tandur.
Interiors : The clients’ requirement was to have an easy-to-maintain home that is also accommodative of their antique wooden furniture. This justifies the use of laminates that are easy-to-clean and veneers that establish a connection with the existing wooden furniture.
