Vishram

Casa Vishram, a modern home in Balkash, Gujarat, is a tranquil retreat nestled amidst nature. With its three parallel volumes, it houses two en-suite bedrooms, an island kitchen, dining and living areas and a green roof terrace.

The house, oriented east west, harnesses prevailing winds for cross ventilation. North-facing skylights fill spaces with soft, indirect natural light.

Like a coconut, mirrors nature’s duality with resilient Limecrete exterior and warm cozy interiors. It is more than design; it is a narrative of a protective shell cradling a comforting haven within. Handmade finishes surface the house, with the exterior coated in earthy, rusty-colored Limecrete. Warm grey polished lime interior walls contrasted with grey concrete floors and teak wood carpentry.
