Open spaces are few and far between in the dense urban jungles that we live in. It therefore becomes the prerogative of our architectural vocabulary to help sustain the environmental connect. Our features this week seem to focus on this bringing in the outdoors and rising beyond the given, to charter out spaces that breathe in the vistas; and usher in as much natural light and ventilation as possible.
Whilst the remodeled villa in Vienna is based on identifying and uplifting its vantage points on the scenic mountainside; the home in a dense urban neighborhood in Bengaluru stands out – not as much for its vertical typology (this is a given in our urban tight-spots called plots), but for its compositional spaces that are chiseled out without compromising on the feel-good of pseudo-spaciousness!
And amidst visiting the rest of our stories, do check out the new TV cum wall art option – quite a novel idea!
Until next week…
Warmly,
Savitha Hira
