The project 'On the Ridge' is located in the serene landscape of Lonavala, Maharashtra, India. Sitting above the valleys surrounding the Tungarli Lake and Valvan Lake, it aims to force the user to come on the ridge, circulate through the structure and discover their own resting spots. This allows them to devour the beauty of the inside and the outside.  It envelopes one in between the heavy walls and then suddenly gives them fresh air to breathe, making one feel as if they are floating. The walls become their guiding element.
