Project X

This is a design proposal to my dear friend and his family. It is a family of four. My client strongly believes in the quote, “Home is where the heart is”. They wanted to have a 3bhk, sitting amidst the green spaces with a calm environment. Although, the site is located in a tight urban context at Coimbatore ,my vision was fo create a Zen atmoshpere inside the dwelling.

I pushed my boundaries to achieve a straight forward design approach spicing up with some parametric touches to the design.

Concept

Since the site is located in a tight urban context at Coimbatore, I developed a concept of getting disconnected to the outside world and have everything inside. As per the client’s requirement, green spaces were fed into each level connecting with nature.

Form development is certainly the most crucial part in the design dévelopment process. As u can see in the diagram, the inner portion of the house is getting developed freely satisfying the clients need without any compromise. To get disconnected from the urban world outside a parametric shell has been used. It disconnects both visually and psychologically. At the same time, cutouts and extrusions are made with conscious for both lighting and ventilation.
