concept

The client came from humble backgrounds and the site being a farmland, demanded simplicity. We went ahead with what we call as an ‘introverted’ approach where the entire house is enclosed from all sides as though it is inside a courtyard.

This made accessibility and security way easier. Because of the courtyard system, locking one access would ensure the entire property to be secure. Also, despite an introverted approach, the interior feels spacious due to the open to sky courtyard in the front and views from the built form towards the courtyard. It is also enhanced in sensorial ways by having different natural elements, for example, the plunge pool.
