A compact house to be built on a large plot where the garden and the house seamlessly intermingle with each other. Each room opens out to a garden courtyard.
The semi circular house creates an east facing courtyard that allows morning light to stream into the rooms.

The simple choice of materials like the polished yellow cement floor and the exposed concrete ceiling give a sense of rustic yet sophisticated feel to the house which is built on the outskirts of town. Refurbihed vintage wooden doors and windows add a touch of nostalgia to the otherwise modern home.

Skylights bring in filtered light into the dining and bathroom that cast interesting shadows into the spaces.
