"The conceptual form of the bungalow is one that was primarily generated by the unique site that was chosen. Located atop the highest point of a cinnamon estate that forms a 12-acre island among the otherwise flat paddy fields of the area. The 3600 views are equally exciting; therefore, needed significant consideration. Envisaged as a circular edge of a "forest clearing", the structure needed to merge with the dense plantation."
"The approach was to define the inner edge only and let the outer edge be randomly broken to organically amalgamate with the landscape."
The bungalow's conceptual form was primarily generated by a unique site located atop the highest point of a cinnamon estate that forms a 12-acre island amid otherwise flat paddy fields. The elevated position provides 360-degree views that required significant consideration in the design. The building is envisaged as a circular edge of a "forest clearing" intended to merge with the surrounding dense plantation. The design strategy defines only the inner edge while allowing the outer edge to break randomly, enabling an organic amalgamation between the structure and the landscape.
