这个班加罗尔的住宅位于城市东部的一个独特的门控社区，我们的第一个冲动是响应这个绿树成荫的社区，特别是北面入口处的一排雄伟的卡丹巴果树。我们热衷于采用自然材料的词汇和建筑表达方式，使之从街道上缓缓升起。100英尺长的北边围墙采用了石头Jaali的形式，完全由熟练的石匠用当地的Sadharhalli石头制作而成。它是对卡纳塔克邦农村自由使用这种石头来保证土地的一种现代参考。重复的垂直石块以榫卯结构交错成水平带，没有砂浆，参考了该地区古老的石头建筑的传统技术。一个带有黄色门和抛光水泥围墙的中央入口门点缀了Jaali，引导人们进入一个入口庭院，然后到达主门。

In this Bengaluru home, located in an exclusive gated community in the eastern part of the city, our first impulse was to respond to the leafy neighborhood, especially the row of majestic Kadamba fruit trees on the road that flanks its north entrance. We were keen on a vocabulary of natural materials and an architectural expression that would gently step up from the street. The 100 ft long north boundary wall takes the form of a stone Jaali, crafted entirely out of local Sadharhalli stone by skilled masons. It is a contemporary reference to the liberal use of this stone as means of securing land in rural Karnataka. The repetitive vertical pieces of stone interlock into horizontal bands with tongue and groove joinery and an absence of mortar, referencing the age-old traditional techniques of stone building in the region. A central entrance portal with a yellow door and polished cement surround punctuates the Jaali and guides one into an entrance court and then to the main door.

这座房子部分用米色的粘土砖覆盖，加强了某些特征，提供了保温和低维护。它的U型朝向是朝向东边的花园，使房子沐浴在柔和的晨光中。在空间上，底层有一个双层高的客厅、酒吧和用餐区、厨房、影音室以及两间卧室。公共区域延伸到宽敞的阳台，与东边的花园互动。在一楼，另外两间卧室、一间书房和一间家庭房也在视觉上向同一个花园开放。某些区域，如起居室、家庭室、客卧和影音室有倾斜的屋顶，而其他区域则是平的。材料是砖和抹灰的白墙，河水处理的科塔和米色大理石地板，以及木材包覆和抛光的水泥天花板之间的相互作用。

The House is clad partially with beige-colored clay bricks that reinforce certain features and provide thermal insulation as well as low maintenance. Its U-shape orientation is towards an east garden which bathes the house with gentle morning light. Spatially, the ground floor houses a double-height living room, bar and dining area, kitchen, AV room as well as two bedrooms. The public areas spill out into generous verandas that interact with the east garden. On the first floor, 2 additional bedrooms, a study as well as a family room also visually open up into the same garden. Certain areas like the living, family room, guest bedroom, and AV room have pitched sloped roofs while the rest are flat. The materiality is an interplay between brick and plastered white walls, river-finished Kota and beige marble floors, and timber-clad and polished cement ceilings.

花园里点缀着雕塑和现有的树木，战略性地放置在某些焦点上。当人们进入门厅时，迎接你的是一个Dimpy Menon的青铜雕塑，它在一个石球上岌岌可危、精力充沛地平衡着。这座人体雕塑似乎漂浮在水景之上，并沐浴在它上面的圆形天窗的光线中。在物业的南端，一棵雄伟的柳树被容纳在建筑设计中，形成一个侧庭，并加强了场地周围无处不在的绿色。

The garden is dotted with sculptures as well as existing trees, strategically placed at certain focal points. As one enters the foyer, you are greeted by a Dimpy Menon bronze sculpture precariously and energetically balancing on a stone sphere. The human sculpture seemingly floats atop a water feature and is bathed in light from a circular skylight atop it. At the southern end of the property, an imposing Willow tree is accommodated in the building design, creating a side court, and reinforcing the omnipresent green around the site.
