A spicula : Woven journey to water

This home is designed to create an experiential “Pause” in highly “Progressive” lives of users. It pulls in the user and starts forming pauses and frames which generates a sense of curiosity in the mind of users compelling them to move along a spine or a “path of experience”. The intervention forms a juxtaposition with existing site elements and is woven with the existing landscape, exaggerating the movement both physically and visually. Hence, this home acts as a peaceful abode with a meditative focus which gives users time to heal and bond. For high resolution click here. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zFmO0dXtwSbmW6xP-6suQVBaBmb0MjAG?usp=share_link
