Text description provided by the architects. Atop a hillock, overlooking a panoramic view of the Himalayan peaks, the clients, Sourabh Upadhyay, Aman & Ankush Rohilla knew from the very start that the house should be designed more to look out, rather than be looked at. Driving up from Jim Corbett National Park towards Ranikhet, a tiny spiraling road opens to this meadow-like soft landscape where Himalayan mules were the only help to carry materials to the top. Since the challenge at hand was to build the glass pavilion in this untouched wilderness, where transportation was a major setback, it was decided to keep the whole house at one level, avoiding excessive vertical structural elements.
