(Un) Concrete House / Architecture Paradigm
Briefly

The architectural design of the house in Bangalore, driven by the client's need for natural light, blends form-finished concrete with its leafy suburban context. Structurally, the house is divided into two longitudinal zones: a west zone for privacy and an east zone that fosters connectivity between spaces. Its two levels feature living areas and bedrooms, with a sunken garden enhancing the relationship with the environment. Large apertures create a dialogue with the surroundings and enhance the light-filled atmosphere, emphasizing the home's root in its context.
