Design Process

The site is situated in Bharuch’s old city, on the bank of river Narmada. The old city was originally fortified, and the fort wall lies on one of the edges of the site. The site is also locally known as ‘Juni Court’ (Old Court) as the ruins of the old building lie there.

The building footprint is divided into three parts accommodation, academy, and admin+auditorium, which also helps preserve all the trees on the site.

The building envelope creates courtyards on the edges while creating a visual connection to the river from the center.

The main building has offsetting terraces that overlook the river. This space is a spill-out area for the academic block.

Site Development

Site Plan

There are total three clusters placed such that they receive maximum cross ventilation since the climate is hot and humid. The seasonal lake gets filled up in monsoon while the rest of the time, it is used as a field to play cricket.

The periphery of the site has vehicular roads while the internal roads are for pedestrians. The roads have green edges and trees to provide shade on the roads during hot days.

Cluster 1

4 Units - 2BHK Special Feature : Each cluster has 4 units with seperate entries and a common outdoor area at the back.

This space can be used for gardening, outdoor dining, lounging, and other activities. The space also acts as catalyst for visual interaction among the residents.

Design Process

Central Open Space for easier access

Deviating the pathway to enlarge rooms and make them more functional.

Development of the shape according to the program.

Incorporating green spaces inside the house as lounge areas.

The house is designed to incorporate nature within the house.

Halfway through the house after the common spaces end, are the bedrooms. The master bedroom on the right rises gradually along a ramp while the guest bedrooms go lower.

The house has 3 Bedrooms, 2 living rooms(formal and informal), a kitchen and 2 small green lounges. The clients have 2 daughters, both of them are married and they visit occasionally with their childern.
