Status Design Development


The design recreates the grounded lifestyle that is formed across modest villages. An apartment complex is being introduced that redefines communal living through introverted stacked flats. As the context is comparatively bland, the complex is stitched inside out. The living spaces are intertwined through a universal landscape that escapes into the sky. Each apartment holds a strong space-making culture which integrates celebrative community spaces as a part of the focus; through which the private pockets are intertwined.


An interesting dialogue is at the entrance; one is effortlessly drawn towards the essence of a homely gesture by the mending of the thatch above. The involvement of a traditional homogenous planning ideology creates congregational spaces, comparable to villages, that invites groups from segments created by thatch roofing. Deliberately, the living spaces are formulated by looking into the contemporary needs through an earthy yet cultural lens.
