Project Overview
This residential project stands as a heartfelt expression of a family’s aspirations for their first dream home. Designed and executed for a close-knit family led by our female client and her father, the home reflects their vision of functionality, sustainability, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Client Introduction
Our clients, a caring and understanding family, entrusted us with the honor of creating their dream home. Their thoughtful approach and openness made us feel like an extension of their family. Every detail, from initial planning to the final execution, was shaped by their daily routines and the needs of their elderly parents, resulting in a home that is both functional and deeply personal.
Design Approach
The home features an open-concept design, with the kitchen and dining areas seamlessly blending into a central courtyard that serves as the heart of the house. The courtyard, adorned with a staircase, acts as a connective space filled with abundant natural light, enhancing the home’s openness and vibrancy.
Circular columns were incorporated into the design to reflect a sense of flow and continuity between spaces. By eliminating sharp edges, these columns not only enhanced the aesthetic appeal but also contributed to the home’s welcoming and harmonious atmosphere.
Rat trap bond construction was utilized for the walls, significantly reducing the number of bricks required while enhancing thermal insulation. This technique ensures the home stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter, improving energy efficiency while staying true to the project’s sustainability goals.
Locally sourced materials were used extensively to reflect the essence of the region. Rubble masonry in the courtyard, roofing tiles, and mud pots used as filler slabs not only reduced the carbon footprint but also added a rustic charm. Skylights strategically placed across the house ensure excellent natural lighting, minimizing the need for artificial lighting during the day.
The exterior of the house combines traditional and modern elements, creating a harmonious façade that resonates with the family’s aesthetic preferences. The thoughtful blend of styles has made the home a standout project in the locality, drawing attention and admiration from neighbors and passersby.
Project Outcome
This home is a testament to the power of collaboration, understanding, and attention to detail. It caters perfectly to the family’s functional needs, embraces sustainability, and celebrates a unique blend of tradition and modernity. The family’s joy and the community’s admiration throughout the project have made it a milestone in our portfolio.
