THE ATRIUM PURIS RESIDENCE

Role: Project Architect

Scope of work:

Conceptualizing the design: I worked closely with the client to understand their vision for the atrium and developed an initial concept that incorporated their preferences while also considering the site context and building’s overall design.

The atrium serves as the central focal point of the Residence. a unique atrium that combines the elegance of parametric design with the awe-inspiring beauty of nature.

Parametrically generated leaf-like patterns adorn walls, ceilings, and surfaces, capturing the delicate intricacies of rainforest foliage. These parametric elements not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also create a dynamic and immersive atmosphere.

GARO HOUSE

BAMBOO ARCHITECTURE IN INDIA

Documentation of a traditional Garo House: Meghalaya. This project studies communities where bamboo is not just a material but a way of life and a symbol of cultural pride.

Bamboo, often referred to as the “green gold,” is one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, with over 1,500 species found worldwide. It has been utilized for centuries by various cultures for a multitude of purposes, ranging from construction to culinary and textile applications. Its rapid growth, renewable nature, and versatility make it a eco-friendly material, especially in the context of sustainable practice.

The house has several rooms, arranged in a long row between the open, it has a bedroom, kitchen, and ‘Aleng’, porch, used for pounding at the valley end and the ‘Balim’, verandah, at ground level where this space is also used to tether cattle. The living room called ‘Dongrama’ has an ‘Ongare’, fire-place, in the center that has a plinth and a smoking shelf.
