The final master plan for a new Medical university in Jodhpur Rajasthan with a site area of 41 acres.

Project : Farmhouse

Location : Bavlu, Gujurat, India

Client : Mr. Daksh Modi

Built Up Area : 3200 sqft.

Site Area : 0.32 acre.

Located in Nature’s Edge, a farmhouse society in Bavlu just on the outskirts of Ahmedabad. The clients requirements was a weekend home for him and his family. The design required a unique approach to the building as a lot of other sites were underway with a very common design style.

On entry through a North-Eastern driveway you first approach the informal living room with an attached bar. Furthur in you find the powder room dining area and kitchen. The home bends around the swimming pool which seperates the residence into the public and private spaces.

The remainder of the residence holds the bedrooms. Three bedrooms with one to be repurposed as the area for the staircase. The eventually constructed staircase will lead to an upper bedroom and kitchen.

The site is spread over two plots of land with the probability of the second plot being sold in the future. This caused a unique situtation in which the designs for the lower plots would have to be temporary. Hence the proposal has a walking path around the lower portion of the site to serve as activity space for the clients family.
