The Shell Dome

The design approach For the following space is biophilic, drawing inspiration from Conch shell for the tensile roof, A Fern bud for the space planning and a sea shell for the circulation. The central wall rotates about the central axis, opening up different spaces based on its positioning, to act as a library. The wall in the living room has a collapsible bed and desk attached to it, a useful feature when more guests arrive. Most of the walls are multi-functional, making the need to buy most of the additional furniture obsolete. Vast glass facades at different levels provide ample natural light to the entire space.
