Architect, Interior Designer, Landscape Designer
Niharika, a Riverside Bungalow
Beyond Known Frontiers’ being the client’s motto in life and business, with a ‘larger than life’ attitude to all that he ever touched, his residence designed by this reputed architect is aptly unique and experimental in built form, pattern and proportion.
‘Niharika’ is the form that attempts to serve the function of being as close to nature as possible. Located near the banks of the Godavari at Nashik, this residential design is an unpretentious effort at creating a fluid, seamless interweave of the raw, rugged exteriors with plush, comfortable interiors.
The house plan, as is apparent in the footprint of the bungalow, is akin to an open palm of the hand, all fingers equally exposed to and allowing in the entry of the five elements of nature. The main spaces like the living and dining areas are actually located on the pool, which surrounds an entire side of the house
Bungalow with Landscape
The footprint of the bungalow is like the spread of an open palm, trying to capture the largest possible portion of the outdoors into the built form of the house. This enables three sides of any living space, be it the dining room, living room or the bed room, to open out to nature.
All the five elements of nature have been drawn into ‘Niharika’ a
