Located in the quiet, lush neighbourhood of Juhu Beach on ECR, this property was designed as a weekend residence for the family outside the bustle of the city. The house is laid out along a linear axis, with an open composition of the formal and informal social spaces on the ground level and the more private spaces above. The service block is organized along the length of the house on the ground floor with external access. The sky-lit straight flight staircase serves as the dynamic focal point of the house with the dramatic play of light and shadow as the sun moves with the passing day. The entire house opens out towards the pool along its length with the garden behind, naturally illuminating the space with abundant light.
