The house is set on a square plot of 4,264 sq ft is and is surrounded by the road on all four sides with a setback inside it’s ambit that supports ‘Parikrama’ revolution. It was necessary to tackle the issue of the heat load experienced by the site especially during summers.

120 kms away from the main city of Jaipur lies a small town Kekri which is also in close proximity to Ajmer. ‘Sarvatobhadra’ translates to ‘auspiciousness in entirety’, defines an epitome of traditional beliefs and empathy, endured by a cultured family of Rajasthan. The design of the house is a metaphor of the client who is soon going to be a retired industrialist.

Above: Detail of the Façade
The site is near to the main highway which raised the need to disconnect the externalities to reduce the pollution and noise. In order to address these concerns intelligent design elements are introduced that create a cooling environment and creates a buffer between the inside and outside. The house externally defines a simple and uncluttered look enhanced by the light shade. The East facing villa evinces a blissful essence of palace. The aluminum screen overhangs breaks down the direct entry of sunlight in the first floor thereby controls the heat. Beneath the screen, gleams the intricate plaster relief work and dashes of nature’s instances. When the sunshine filters through the decorative screen, and thereafter the palm trees, it gets diffused and passed into the rooms through the wide windows.

The articulation of the long pillars, furniture, color palette, home dĂŠcor, finishes and textures, all give a royal look to the space. A step into the foyer introduces the traditional Rajasthani welcoming mural called as Pushpavali set inside a carved arch wall. The rooms have all an intrinsic touch of the custom arts that define the mood and meaning of the space. The ground floor hold up the private and public spaces and segregates them. The living area, kitchen, dining, TV room, master bedroom, etc., are laid out on the ground floor. One of the walls exhibits a vibrant artwork Bhuvainika, done in Ocher and aubergine hues.
