The house has been designed in such a way that all the living rooms have access to the patio. The idea of creating a central courtyard with pools that will reflect the house was the basis of the design concept for the entire property. These reflections have become one of the main elements of the decor of the exterior.
The roof and veranda are made entirely of wood. Introduced a lot of glass – this was done to bring nature as close as possible to the vacationers in this home. Because the summer is so hot and the sun is hitting hard, the windows are oriented mostly to the north and east. The west and south expose either the walls or the window apertures, protected by broad awnings that are at least seven feet wide.
The pools were originally purely decorative. Clear water was meant to reflect the building. But in the process, it was decided to install water filters in them – making them suitable for bathing. The art objects used for the decoration were sourced in a variety of ways.
For example, the bird that now adorns the veranda was lucky enough to be found at a convenience store, but the wooden peacock in the garden was custom-made.
Architecture, interior design and landscaping of this modern home are perfectly synchronized with each other. Thanks to this, the space acquires timeless qualities and creates a special atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation.
This text mentions the “perfect harmony between architecture and landscape” in Hiren Patel’s Residence in India. As a reader, I would love to know more about how exactly this harmony is achieved. Could you provide some specific examples or details that highlight the seamless integration of the architectural design with the surrounding natural environment?
