One Line

Reaching skyward toward the peaks beyond, a thin roof edge rises from an oxidized steel mass anchoring the building while outlining a curtain of glass below. Vertical timber fins based upon the Fibonacci sequence echo the slender blades of surrounding native grasses, grounding the translucent façade into the terrain. Defying the urban context of nearby monolithic structures, the graceful, slender building is nestled within a sliver of flora having taken its cue from the natural setting by reframing a connection to the landscape.

Pottery Art Gallery

The Pottery Art Gallery located in Daegu, Alpha City, is designed to maximize versatility for various purposes, incorporating a layout that overcomes the topographical features. The exterior features two distinct masses stacked on top of each other. The lower level consists of public spaces accessible to visitors, while the upper level comprises private research spaces. The design of the courtyard is inspired by the sinuous shape of pottery, opening up towards the outside and enclosing the inner space.

It is social infrastructure that helps bond the community. It is a stadium for the people.

A serene retreat nestled in nature's embrace, this single story four bed house in northern Kerala, near Wayanad, is a harmonious blend of simplicity and uniqueness. Designed to respect its surroundings, the dark textured building features asymmetric c shapes mirroring a central tree.
