Text description provided by the architects. Situated in the arid desert region of Nokha in Rajasthan, India , the Narsighar house imbibes the traditional planning principles of the regional architecture prevalent since centuries in Rajasthan. Most of the houses & palaces built in this region since centuries had courtyards for passive cooling , thick stone walls to combat the excessive heat & stone ‘jali’ screens to mitigate heat gain.
