Set against the backdrop of the majestic and ancient Badami rocks, the three acre retreat is intended to ‘slow down time’ for its guests. The architecture uses tradidional elements of design - courtyards, deep set verandahs, sun breaking screens that provide and inward looking, shaded and naturally cool spaces

The choice of material is the raw laterite walls and exposed concrete  structural members. The use of the ‘Rohtak’ shallow brick domes adds a unique rustic charm to the rooms of the retreat

The ‘kund’ like or steppped swimming pool is reminiscent of the stepwells and temple ablution paved wells of ancient  India
