Site context of 4050 sq. ft. plot area resides in the dense core of Nanded city. The site faces a street on the North side.

All other sides are surrounded by neighbouring houses on the east and south and west side. The dwelling is designed for a family of a couple with one son in which spaces are designed to cater to the daily needs that represent them to the new generation.

The studio’s perspective was focused on climate responsive style keeping in mind the site surroundings. Experiencing the onsite situation we felt the need to bring natural outdoor landscapes inside the built envelope that allows them to enjoy surroundings uninterrupted without going out.

The site has a main entrance gate from the north side which opens up in the parking area. The parking area is designed such that it can be used for festive, leisure or any gatherings with a small interaction space with gardening along its edge to give it a natural feel.
