The brief for a
client, also an architect was to create a weekend pavilion on a piece of land
purchased primarily as an investment. A tight budget of Rs. 5 lakhs was defined
for construction, with no constraint in the design process.Undertaken as a
research project to introspect contemporary architectural design for a
residence, the building was conceived around first principles of climate,
simplicity of materials and construction, with aninnovative take on what a
modern spatial configuration for a home should be.The plan was
organized around 3 basic spaces – the requirement for a large garden, a minimal
amount of enclosed area to function as a weekend home, and most importantly,
the space that served as the transition between the first two. The transition
space was envisaged as a large, shaded extension of the living space that would
make it eminently usable, when the weather was not too harsh.The resulting partiis that of a thin, linear block on
the party wall that accommodates the enclosed spaces. A projecting slab on a
series of thin, almost invisible, supports defines the four living areas –
completely open, a roof with no walls, walls with no roof, a roof enclosed with
glass. These four spaces will allow for usability in all of Delhi’s weather
moods.The flooring is
Kota, the walls are in brick, and the 2 concrete slabs define the horizontals –
the lower one acting as both the foundation and the floor.
