As simple it is, in plan, the architects tried to play with levels in and around the house, creating artificial contours within the landscape, the pool that sits on a level much lower than the house, the can;levered deck, the floating balconies, and a manmade lake.

The facade reflects minimalism, while the scale and details of the built-form resonates optimism as one walks down the unpaved contours of the house. Opening the west-facing blue wooden door, one feels welcomed by a low height foyer embraced by an open courtyard. Surrounded by lush greens, bamboo screens and white textured walls, this courtyard houses the water body, landscape with varied plant species and a floa;ng concrete staircase that leads to terrace. This further bifurcates private and semi-private areas, which connects to a series of siNng spaces, an open kitchen, a dining, and bedrooms with built-in furniture. Few steps down, and one is amazed to see the beau;ful view of the lake with a calm pool and local landscape allowing the house to sit quietly within its context.

“How we see it, this house sets an example of a polite conversation between the nature, the architecture and users.”



The furniture in bedrooms is absolutely minimal. The bed itself is a platform in brick plaster base with a mattress on top.
