Given a context offering a surreal view all around the site, the design was revolving around capturing the larger context through a poetic experience. The vision was to enhance the existing site further with a cozy natural pond to add to the existing beauty of the larger context and narrate a story in and around the water body.
A linear axis across the site allows the user to experience a dense landscape and gushing water on either side. The minimalistic rectilinear volume opens out to the landscape by diluting the boundaries between the built and unbuilt spaces. The simplicity of the ground floor allows for a radical iteration of a radial hut floating around the water pond to capture the context into the built volume.
