Project Brief by Architect.
The Ridge House, nestled in Bengaluru’s dense urban landscape, features two striking volumes adorned with simple jaali bricks. The lower volume belongs to the homeowners’ parents, while the upper volume, designed around a courtyard, is for the young couple. They sought a vernacular yet modern residence that offers privacy and an immersive outdoor experience.
The upper volume is split into areas for entertaining and private activities, centered around a communal space that includes a kitchen, dining area, and courtyard. This versatile area fosters a connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, filling the home with natural light and greenery. Tactile flooring differentiates the spaces, enhancing flow.
The adjoining volume houses bedrooms and a multipurpose family room, creating a double-height effect that amplifies spaciousness. A skylight in the Mangalore-tiled roof invites light into the warm, wood-clad interiors. The jaali brick facade provides visual privacy while blending contemporary and traditional styles.
Despite its compact context, the Ridge House is a thoughtfully designed haven that prioritizes family values and connection.
