Mr. Ovais Bungalow

Status: Ongoing    Location: Bellary, Karnataka    Genre: Bungalow

This bungalow at Bellary is an exercise in bold, sculptural form. A dramatic raw concrete plane, pierced by a striking circular aperture, slices across the facade and becomes the signature gesture of the home, set against warm vertical timber cladding and crisp white volumes. Angular steel columns frame a generous stepped entrance, lending the approach a sense of theatre, while cantilevered balconies with glass railings open the upper level to light and garden views. Surrounded by lush planting, it is a confident, contemporary family home where geometry and materiality play off one another with real drama.
