studio Naqshbandi
Mona Doctor-Pingel
Yantra, Auroville | Architect’s studio | 80 Sq.m
Built in the midst of nature, the studio depicts a perfect example of being Inside and outside. Aligned North-South, the vaulted space is like a tunnel through a garden bringing in ample of natural light and ventilation. The feel of ‘cudappa’ stone floor; a semi-open outdoor space next to a pond- to work as well as relax; a bay window stretching out of the wall; creates a serene working environment. Emphasis is on simplicity & subtlety; thus every architectural decision keeps with the overall conceived rhythm & not detract from its primary purpose. Therefore the studio communicates notions that are ingrained in its fabric with clarity and precision
