House in Kashid 2022

Refurbishment of a Small House on a Quaint Site with Panoramic Views 

 

 

 

 

Designed as a retirement cottage, the client found a small house perched on a beautiful hill overlooking the backwaters and the fertile agrarian plains in Kashid. This particular cottage – one of many – perched on this small development was originally designed as a weekend hotel for guests from Mumbai. Owing to its context and the natural lay of the land, the design exercises restraint to retain the existing slope and angle of the roof.
