The main prerequisite of the Client was to design the house in accordance with 24 directions of Vastu. In addition The requirement was also to design 2 exact same houses for 2 families on 2 amalgamated plots. The overall master plan of the site is designed with 2 houses placement and a driveway surrounded by green islands. Both house placements offer a central garden view along with a private garden view. The areas near the houses are designed as green islands of contours with various heights, colors, and textures. Exposed RCC, exposed brick, and brown kota were the prime material pallet of the house, but we wanted the greens to be prominent, too.

The Ascending house is in Ahmedabad, completed in December 2022. The massing of the house is designed with step formation to cater to higher side requirements along with open spaces on each floor. The bulk was broken into segments and was designed with a concept of Jenga blocks and was fragmented as per ascending floor plates. The design caters to cozy scale terraces to rooms, which emphasize the extruded cuboids. In the brief, we were told that clients believe in the puja area to a great extent. As the design outcome, the circular concrete mass was designed with a fixed glass slit on top. This space was formed as the dynamic element for the daytime with a height of 16ft.

The Floating Frame house is located on the outskirts of Ahmedabad city amidst a dense green rural area. While designing, we often try to understand the user group's personality. The house being ours, it had an integrated brief from all family members which includes a structural engineer, an architect, and a landscape architect. The concept was to design a home that could delight the scenery of both an undivided garden and sky from major parts of the house. All members being nature lovers & wildlife photographers, the material palette of exposed brick, exposed concrete, exposed steel structure, and lots of creepers, and plants covering the house were key aspects of the design process. Here, the architecture is enveloped by greens.
