A home written by Vastu, not by convention.
The brief was Vastu-first throughout, with no false ceiling anywhere in the house. The plot sits wrapped in large, mature trees on every side, a condition the design leans into rather than works around, letting the siting and the greenery around it set the terms for the plan.
Terracotta jaali,
in place of glass.
The clients weren’t drawn to typical glass railings, so terracotta brick jaalis take their place, on the balconies, the boundary wall, the gate and the rooftop parapet, carrying a vernacular character through the whole house.
"The juxtaposition of windows on the sides is a result of functions dictating forms ."
