Bangalore is well known for its gardens and is referred to as the “City of Gardens.” In an urban scenario, high-density urban homes are common; however, this project was fortunate to be surrounded by greenery. The quest to utilise the natural greens in the surroundings was key to creating the House of Greens—a home that connects to nature both physically and visually.
House of Greens is a unique project catering to prestigious clients with a deep appreciation for nature and sustainability. The clients are dog lovers, green enthusiasts, down-to-earth doctors, and peace lovers, committed to a sustainable lifestyle. The design brief for the House of Greens reflects its values and personality, focusing on creating a sustainable green home with an abundance of greenery.
For these nature-loving clients, the House of Greens was a dream come true. This 4 BHK home is surrounded by lush greenery, making it easy to connect with nature both visually and physically. The concept of the house was carefully conceived to offer a garden experience in every space (Figure 3a).
From the living area to the dining area, which connects seamlessly with the landscape and leads to the master bedroom with a private balcony in direct contact with nature, every aspect enhances this connection.
The design has been carefully curated, focusing on natural elements such as laterite stone cladding, natural granite, and wooden doors and windows (Figures 3b & 3c). The house is well-ventilated, with plenty of natural light and airflow, creating a positive and pleasant atmosphere.
Additionally, a variety of indoor plants, a rooftop garden, and a lush backyard bring the beauty of nature into the living spaces, providing a tranquil and peaceful environment for the residents (Figures 3d & 3e).
