The bungalow is an outcome of highly contemporary design idea combined with client’s urge of ornamentation and traditional decoration. The fusion of two thoughts makes this project unique. The ornamentation, the blend of colours and patterns has always been tradition of India and has been still influencing Indian minds to adopt the same. The challenge is to achieve this with the contemporary architecture and keep the pace with the time.

The bungalow is
an outcome of highly contemporary design idea combined with client’s urge of
ornamentation and traditional decoration. The fusion of two thoughts makes this
project unique. The ornamentation, the blend of colours and patterns has always
been tradition of India and has been still influencing Indian minds to adopt
the same. The challenge is to achieve this with the contemporary architecture
and keep the pace with the time.
The theme flows
from architecture to interior seamlessly. Bungalow is located on one of the
main roads in the city of Pune. The planning had restrictions due to the main
road & society bye laws.
The design of the bungalow is based on our design philosophy - contemporary vernacular architecture. It incorporates vernacular ethos and features like courtyards, stone masonry in a highly contemporary style. The contemporary stone work along with metal pergolas & white masses creates extremely contrasting yet well balanced composition. The shadow pattern keeps on changing through the day creating dynamism in architecture. This simple architecture is highlighted with vertical garden & wood work at the entry. The architecture unfolds itself into unique interior style. The fusion is created & highlighted with wood & few classical rustic pieces of furniture and artwork. The stataurio flooring forms a beautiful base for fusion theme.
The planning is done in such a way that public areas flow into each other & courtyard connects the spaces to the first floor. The bungalow has seven bedrooms, living, dining, kitchen, family & home theater. Ground floor accommodates living, dining, kitchen, one small office, one master bed, daughter’s bed , guest beds & Puja.
There are two courtyards- one central courtyard & one puja Courtyard. Both pour the light in the linear planned home. The light is subtle & adds warmth in the décor. The third skylight is at the wall mural which continues from the ground to first floor. These three sources of natural light keep the home naturally lit. The turbo ventilator at the central courtyard allow for stack effect and continuous air flow in the home.
