square openings punctuate wood-textured concrete facade of studio saransh's house in india
Briefly

Studio Saransh designed the MS House in Ahmedabad, India as a brutalist home that incorporates nine mature neem trees, making them crucial to its architectural layout and function. The house's design features a boundary wall that winds around a tree, enhancing the connection to nature. A central double-height bay embraces a neem tree, serving as a gathering space for the family, while the distinct brutalist aesthetics blend with the surrounding landscape to soften the home's visual impact. The layout prioritizes natural light and the relationship between the indoors and outdoors, reflecting a commitment to contextual, functional design.
The central bay is more than just a design element-it is the soul of the house, anchoring two wings that house communal and private family spaces.
Every element of this house is shaped by the site's natural context and the family's needs, embodying our belief that good design must integrate function and environment.
