SYNTHESIS BUILT ON LAYERS

House 1058 is a family home that is distinguished by its staggering mass of layers along horizontal and vertical planes. It is conceptualized as a congregation of programmatically distributed spaces, and the ground floor is designated for public spaces, while the first floor is home to the private areas of the family. House 1058 is located in the affluent neighborhood of Jubilee Hills in the suburbs of Hyderabad. The well-known architectural company Khosla Associates, which is located in Bangalore, makes advantage of the uninterrupted length of the linear site in order to create proportional pockets of natural areas in contrast to the constructed bulk. Throughout the living room, dining room, kitchen, bar, study, puja room, guest room, and home theater, the open spaces are dispersed in a regular manner. The majority of the open spaces are oriented toward the north. The living rooms are continuous with the green areas, which are organized as courtyards, tropical courtyard gardens, verandahs, and decks. Some of the living areas are structured as pavilions, which contributes to an improvement in the quality of the nearby voids. On the first floor, the bedrooms for the various members of the family are equipped with balconies and terraces. These balconies and terraces not only serve as a buffer between the harsh exterior and the conditioned interior, but they also transform into spaces that are conducive to relaxation and entertainment. Experimentally experimenting with considerable cantilevers and varied forms for the timber-clad roofs, which were in turn made feasible by revolutionary structural systems of tubular space-frame trusses, resulted in the creation of the unique staggering form. It is possible for the home to be protected from the heat thanks to the use of an innovative cladding system and insulation approach, in conjunction with the practical distribution of areas. Kota stone, exposed, polished cement, gray granite, and teakwood are all locally obtained materials that were used in the construction of the home, despite the fact that it is not typical of the circumstances in the area. It is important to strike a balance between the subdued color scheme of the building materials and the vibrant, primary colors that are employed in the furnishings and upholstery. Inverted trapezoidal shapes, manipulation of surface angles, and variable heights give the impression that the home is made up of tetris blocks. These blocks provide the impression of being linked with one another, which results in the creation of fun spaces for habitation.
