The site with thriving greenery was located just outside vadodara city. The brief was very
clear to design a contemporary house for this family of three and their support staff
meeting their functional requirements. The challenge of the site really lay in preserving the
natural vegetation that abounded on the plot. The planning went through several iterations
in a bid to preserve as many of the trees on site as possible.

Design
The main driveway leads to a white cantilever porch which defines the drop-off point for the
house. The house itself is an extended spine from this point with various functions attached
to it along its length. Three outdoor verandahs serve as attached semi-open entities to
functions like living and bedrooms. The outdoor pool and deck hugs the living spaces and
master bedroom thereby bringing in the cool air during winters. This poolside space extends
into a lawn making it ideal space for leisure. An external staircase leads one to terrace
which features open Jacuzzi capturing the vast green forest around the site.
