Personal sanctuary: House and adjoining yard
In the bustling city of Mumbai, a contemporary residence stands tall, offering a unique blend of urban and rural elements. This 10,171 sq ft penthouse, designed by Studio Lotus, is more than just a home; it embodies the cosmopolitan dream and provides space for living and breathing.
Nestled in the heart of the city, the residence offers an eagle-eye view of Mumbai's skyscraper-dotted skyline from its rooftop. Yet, it doesn't compromise on the tranquillity of a garden, as the concept of a house and garden is beautifully modernised within its walls.
The architects have skillfully interpreted the traditional house and garden concept, creating an uber-contemporary rendition that seamlessly integrates small city benefits with big city dreams. The residence does not specify the exact location within the city, but it promises the advantages of combining these elements.
The home's design is characterised by its alfresco areas between the southwest facade and bamboo slats, which the architects refer to as the home's "second skin." These outdoor spaces provide a connection to nature, even in the heart of the city.
Not only does the residence offer an alfresco kitchen garden on the terrace, but it also provides opportunities for residents to grow their own produce. This urban farming element adds a touch of the rural to the urban living experience.
The residence, which is also a penthouse and duplex, does not elaborate on the specific urban elements it offers, but it suggests they are part of the design. Space is a luxury in Mumbai, and the home provides various spatial options to cater to its residents' needs.
The modern interpretation of the traditional house and garden concept proves that it is possible to have both urban and rural elements in one residence. This unique blend offers the advantage of combining big city dreams with small city benefits, making it an attractive option for city dwellers seeking a balance between modern living and a touch of nature.
