Pitch Black House
A young couple were looking to build not just their new family home but also a statement and symbolism to show to their friends and family their independence and capability. This home is designed to be very flexible in its spatial configuration and accommodates in different occasions a growing family, the visiting extended family or just them as a couple. The internal volumes are played in a way to visually interlink and to avoid a sense of isolation within the large house. Their appreciation for the colour black and pitched roofs , are evidently seen in creating the massing of the house - which in a way mimics the bold western ghats in its background. Despite the tight plot condition the house makes room for landscape and courtyards in every floor of the house. The waterbody on the 1st floor enables to bring a cool waft of air into the living room and the family space.
