While this orientation might not be ideal climatically, it was a conscious decision considering neighboring plots and the curved corner of the plot in southeast. The layout strategically places utilitarian spaces on the northwest corner, making efficient use of internal margins.
Positioning the house on the northwest corner liberates ample space for a lawn and garden, with all living areas thoughtfully oriented towards the landscaped garden.
Innovative design features such as a fabricated roof sloping northwards in the living room minimize sunlight exposure on the roof while offering natural views of the tall trees southern sky.
A fabricated projection above the L-shaped glass facing the garden serves dual purposes as a weather shed and planter area, adorned with vertical louvers for sunlight regulation and aesthetic appeal.
The design seamlessly integrates small courtyards near the entrance and dining areas, along with a linear verandah on the ground floor and a deck on the first floor overlooking the garden.
These elements blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a harmonious living environment.
This thoughtful approach ensures a perfect balance of functionality, aesthetics, and connectivity with nature, making the Bungalow an idyllic retreat for modern living.
