The design enhances light, ventilation, and east views with a double-height courtyard and garden balconies, bringing morning light and garden views to all main spaces.
The ground floor of the four-level house features parking, a drop-off area, living and guest spaces, a home theatre, and a separate maid’s room, creating an efficient semi-public zone.
The first floor acts as the social and spiritual heart of the house. It features a double-height formal living area that opens into a linear courtyard, bringing in daylight and enabling passive cooling. A puja room, kitchen, and dining area are placed strategically as per South Indian Vastu on the east faces to fulfill the Vastu benefits, and same way, it benefits from front park views utilization. A master bedroom on this floor ensures privacy for the primary residents while maintaining proximity to communal spaces.
The second floor offers a private zone with two master bedrooms, a family lounge, and a study with a library. Each space is extended with balconies facing the garden, offering shade and transitional zones between indoor and outdoor. These spaces allow for leisure and contemplation while maintaining visual continuity with the exterior.
The third floor emphasizes wellness, featuring a gym, laundry, and terrace with greenery, offering east-facing park views for family gatherings and evening relaxation.
The house uses exposed concrete, natural stone, wood, terracotta, and glass for a warm, durable, and climate-friendly design. The thoughtfulness of lights, air, and greenery defines the identity of the home.
Isha_Srindhi Nilaya responds to its urban site, orientation, and family life, providing a spatially rich, environmentally attuned home.
