Residence at Umra

Located in a newer locality of the city of Surat, India, the Residence is crafted beautifully with an eye towards spatial elements articulating as a structure. Appropriate natural light is incorporated with skylights across the section where one can also observe a distinctive play of volumes. A uniquely crafted timber and steel staircase symbolises the design concept that the house adheres to, with the minutest of details.

The vertical water feature unites the roof with the first and ground level gardens, expressing & celebrating the flow of water. Nature softly blends into this house merging the outdoor gardens with the living areas, along with the terrace garden adding to this perception as it stimulates the inhabitants to experience the sky while unwinding after a long day.
