Inspired by the cosmos and Indian mythology, clients were fascinated by the idea of exploring a refreshing take outside the conventionally straight geometrical architectural style and wished for the house to be not only a home but also a private retreat. Focusing on site-sensitive responses to the plot, a double entrance on opposite ends has been placed so that when entering, one has to climb the slope while the exit pathway is a downward slope, giving one a feeling of being in a fortress.

The site is in a plotting scheme on the outskirts of Ahmedabad on 45,000 sq ft of land. The brief given by the owner was a 4-bedroom house with a living, study, and entertainment area. The owner wanted an open house and hence conceptual layout started with layouts when courtyards and semi-open verandah spaces. Since there were only the owner and his father to be staying while the daughter would be visiting at times, hence it was openness that was preferred over closed secured spaces. The house is an amalgamation of a series of courtyards, such as an entry court, a central court, a dining area court, a shower court, and a pool court making it a very open house allowing natural elements within.

This house for a family of four is a part of a gated community on the outskirts of Ahmedabad. The family earlier had their weekend home on this plot where they have now shifted their permanent residence moving away from the densely populated localities of the city. The idea was to connect the users with the traditional elements of architecture while achieving a contemporary look.
