DINESH MILLS BUNGALOW BY ATELIER DND Continued…



Design Challenges:

– Build a minimalist house with simple lines, uncluttered geometry and fluid transparent spaces

– Blend interiors with exteriors to keep owners in constant touch with the outdoor surroundings

– Design for family of three + support staff

Result:

– Main driveway leads to a white cantilever porch which defines the drop-off point for the house

– House is an extended spine from this point with various functions attached to it along its length

– Three outdoor verandas serve as attached semi-open entities to functions like living and bedrooms

– Outdoor pool and deck hugs the living spaces and master bedroom

– External staircase leads to terrace which features open Jacuzzi
