The main idea of the design was to create two separate blocks of residence and the architect's studio. The idea of having a circular atrium space in between the two blocks that trap in the heat during the daytime keeps the spaces warmer and comfortable to use. The entire building orientation and fenestrations have been decided and designed according to the climatic conditions of Leh.
