The brief entailed additions and an extension to an existing single-storied structure.
The challenge, however, was that the client wanted a modern-looking house while the existing house had a strong classical façade with a dominant sloping roof over the living room.
The same has been achieved without any major structural alterations.
This house was awarded as a commendable entry at the Ultratech- ICI design awards (Goa) in the Best Villa category in 2015.
