Text description provided by the architects. The house, situated on the outskirts of Ahmedabad, India, is surrounded by a canopy of the Yellow Gulmohar trees. It was designed for a family of four, where the parents would spend their retired life while the children would be engrossed in developing their careers. Fundamentally, it had to respond to the needs of two generations where one can come together to enjoy each other’s company but also respect their time alone. Keeping in mind such a brief, the architecture responds to a variety of spaces of various scales where one can unwind. This house thus responds to the climate and the lifestyle of the inhabitants. The use of Kota stone and terrazzo for flooring, maximum wooden windows, and inbuilt seatings was to keep the home timeless and user-friendly.
