Home by the Beach, Udvada

Nestled amidst the trees, is a home for five, an elderly Parsi couple, who are retired textile merchants, their son, and his family who visit fortnightly, situated along the coast of Udvada. It also includes a homestay for a couple or a small family, where they can live with the family and experience traditional Parsi culture and heritage, and a small sunset café along the beach. The concept revolves around separating the public, semi-private, and private spaces by levels, but connecting them through a common courtyard and double-height spaces. This courtyard is enclosed by these spaces on three sides with the fourth side opening up to the sea, thus integrating its natural surroundings.
