This site is located at a very busy intersection overlooking a highly eventful marketplace. The design has been done delicately to address to this rich contextuality, visually opening up the corner at the intersection by functionally introducing an open garden. This garden has been made catering to the users’ privacy with an iconic curved wall hugging it from one side and a wall of green and the boundary creating an island of green between the busy street intersection and the house.

This residence has ingeniously broken away from the linear box typology dominating the surrounding context by introducing a trapezoidal block . This acts like a surprise in an otherwise preconceived built form derived from the byelaws, asserting a dynamically bold statement on this urban corner. The design stands out with its overhead louvers embracing the whole house, acting as a shading screen on the roof and outer walls.

With its ground floor reserved for public functions the open spaces are designed such that when in use they can be opened up or closed as desired. Large openings have been introduced onto the facade without compromising on the privacy of the residents.
