Dhrangadhra yellow stone and exposed concrete build this amazing single storey modern rustic home in Gujarat, Ahmadabad, India. Designed by Snehal Suthar and Bhadri Suthar of the gRID Architects, the 1100-square-foot home is a one-story apartment that was created as an intimate, modest weekend getaway. The comfortable interior design marks a connection between man-made and natural materials, with beautiful reclaimed wood, jute and rope, soft steel and entire walls of clear glass. A toned limestone floor created with Kotah slabs smooths easily on a paved terrace. These ground local materials plus local processing meant that the construction of the home had a reduced carbon footprint, which meant for the owner.<\/p>\n

The Dhrangadhra yellow stone that was used for both the foundation and total construction of the home gives the property its name, the Rock House. The 1100-square-foot home is located on a 4776.3-square-foot site, which allows for the construction of a large terrace next to the property, where the couple can spend quality time together and entertaining friends.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The yellow stone construction gives the one-story home its warm, rustic charm. Terracotta planters are scattered around the vast paved terrace, creating many decorative interesting moments and opportunities for added greenery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

A mature palm is placed right in the center of the large courtyard. The natural surroundings remained largely undisturbed in the building of this environmentally sensitive home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The holiday homeowners wanted to create a place that would link privacy with open spaces so that they could connect more with the outdoors. The architects responded to this report with a home design that was built around nature, rather than the embodiment of nature into the home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The natural and raw materials of the modest home design harmonize with the indigenous environment. The architecture forms an H-shaped block that only very gently influences the indigenous landscapes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The weekend home offers the owners a restful, nature-kissing experience that is fundamentally different from their routine living during the week. Large local mature trees provide shade from the sun along all roads. Instead of man-made walls, these trees also mark the boundary of the home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The paved plinth raises the one-story house by two feet to provide a small vantage point over the green landscape. Plants and water bodies create an independent micro-ecosystem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The program and planning minimized the built-in form to ensure continuous communion with nature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The house was designed as a mere shelter for some essential daily activities, with the rest of weekend life expected to take place outside.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Local species of insect repellent plants keep the insects in the outdoor habitats.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Inside the home, the one-foot-thick stone walls remain a prominent project. The continuation of yellow stone solidifies the easy connection between the interior and exterior spaces and simply lacks cosmetic layers. Red pillows and red carpet add bright accents to a comfortable lounge area, while a modern dining set makes for a weather-resistant dining area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Unique furniture fills the rustic interior with character heaps and interesting talking points.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Large glass walls keep connections with the abundant green surroundings at all times, even if hidden indoors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The rustic bedroom is a wildly colorful retreat. More floor-to-ceiling glass extends the home\u2019s connection with the gardens, absorbs natural light and shows the passing seasons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Recovered wooden bedroom pendant lights are located above worthless floating bedside tables that allow the more decorative pieces in the room to shine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Coordinating wooden hanging lights illuminate the walkways around the home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Even while spending time indoors cooking food or dining under shelter, the wide glass doors can be retracted to create an open connection with the landscape. The installation of one wall kitchen is a raw wood design that complements the organic envelope of stone walls and tropical plants. Kotah limestone slabs fill the floor of the kitchen dining room and flow through the rest of the home. An exposed concrete ceiling adds a touch of raw industrial style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Trees around the property provide shelter and food to local birds and small wildlife, encouraging biodiversity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The architects avoided fragmentation of the landscape with composite walls so that the house would rely on natural boundaries created by vegetation for privacy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The site plan illustrates how the established trees were preserved to achieve natural privacy. The floor plan shows how the architects created living spaces that are without pillars, to give unobstructed views of the landscape.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The left side elevation is solid stone, creating a rustic fortress to the outside world. Stone pillars intelligently mark the porch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

As we move to the rear elevation, we observe a stone and glass facade that connects the home interior to the natural surroundings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

More floor-to-ceiling glass breaks open up the right side height of the house.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

In section A, we observe a small courtyard right next to the bathroom, which gives the room a private garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The main courtyard is a prominent feature in Section B, where it surrounds the dwelling. A second courtyard runs alongside the corridor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Finally, section C arranges the dining room relative to the living room and marks the flow into the large paved backyard area, where most daily activities take place for the couple each weekend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
