帕瓦那以其迷人的景色而闻名，它既是一个度假胜地，也是一个原始景观–湖泊被萨哈德里斯（Sahyadris）所包围，由三座堡垒加冕和守卫…。这家四口人想找到一个周末度假的地方，也想从喧嚣的城市生活中解脱出来，因此冒险去寻找一块土地，它不仅能抓住这个地方的本质，还能激发、愉悦和满足他们的创造性努力。
Famous for its captivating vistas, Pavana is as much a getaway as it is a pristine landscape – with the lake landlocked by the Sahyadris, crowned and guarded by three forts… The family of four sought to discover a weekend retreat as well as a reprieve from the bustling life of the city and hence ventured out in search of a tract of land that would not only capture the essence of the place but could also inspire, delight and satiate their creative endeavors.
在高高的Sahyadris水平上，故事开始于五行交汇之处–地球和天空，中间是空气、水和火–从地球上成型，并向广阔的环境开放，允许外面的人踏入。
“住宅与周围的元素同步存在–这是对自然本身的一种潜意识的点头”。
Rising high and at the level of the Sahyadris, the story begins where the Five Elements meet – The Earth and The Sky, with Air, Water, and Fire in-between – molded from the earth and open to the vast surround allowing the outside to step in.
“The abode exists in tandem with the elements around it – a subliminal nod to nature itself.”
纹理柔和的冬青色墙体在阳光下变得更加温暖，模仿了大地的色调；这不仅与景观融为一体，而且给人一种从它所处的土地上生长出来的质量的印象。占地面积确保场地被改变到最低限度。房子随着土地的起伏而上升和下降。每一层都与轮廓线相呼应，产生了一个动态的、有趣的上升和下降的组合–向山丘致敬。
The textured and subdued wintergreen walls grow warmer in tone under the sun and mimic the tones of the earth; which not only blends in with the landscape but gives the impression of a mass that has grown and emerged from the land on which it rests. The footprint ensures that the site has been altered to a bare minimum. The house rises and falls, following the lay of the land. Each level responds to the contour which gives rise to a dynamic and playful mix of risers and landings – a homage to the hills.
顺着屋顶的轮廓，大面积的开窗带来了日光和温暖，创造了与天空中不断变化的色调的联系，也是对时间流逝的一种随意提醒。房屋内的空间一直处于光与影的舞动中–光线在墙壁上闪闪发光，而黑暗的斑块则在地板上散开。这些元素被允许进入，并且可以被看到、感觉到和听到，诱使用户暂停并不断探索、体验和生活在这个空间。
Following the profile of the roofs, large fenestrations bring in daylight and warmth creating a connection with the changing hues of the skies above and a casual reminder of the passage of time. The spaces within the house stay in a constant dance of light and shadow – with light that shimmers and glides along walls and dark patches that spread out across the floor. The elements are allowed to enter and can be seen, felt and heard, enticing the users to pause and constantly explore, experience and live the space.
简单而朴实的材料和色调–石灰石（Shahabad和Kadappa）、砂岩、石板、柚木、赤土砖、裸露的砖、水泥灰泥、低碳钢–补充并尊重场地和周围环境。利用场地和周围环境的优势，设计从一个有凝聚力的单一单元演变成一个以块状展开的结构，就像一个拼图，已建和未建的空间交错在一起，形成一个整体。
A simple and earthy palette of materials and tones – limestone (Shahabad & Kadappa), sandstone, slate, teak wood, terracotta tiles, exposed brick, cement plaster, mild steel – complement and respect the site and its surroundings. Taking advantage of the site and the surround, the design evolved from a cohesive single unit to a structure that spreads out in blocks, akin to a jigsaw, with built and unbuilt spaces interlocking to create a whole.
房子被分隔成许多区域–主人区、孩子区、生活区和客人区–考虑到家庭的要求和他们的职业倾向。每个区域都有一个非正式的空间–Aangan（一个小院子）、游泳池、荷花池–确保了从内部到外部的空间的连续性和流动性。作为一个朋友的家，就像一个家庭的家一样，五元素住宅是一个庆祝生活本身的地方。
Segregated into numerous zones – the master block, the kid’s block, the living block and the guest block – the house takes into account the family’s requirements and their professional inclinations. Each zone spills out into an informal space – the aangan (a small courtyard), the pool, the lily pond – that ensures the continuity and flow of spaces from the interior to the exterior. Conceived as a home for friends as much as it was a home for a family, the 5 Element House is a place for celebrating life itself.
