In one of the old village neighbourhoods of Surat lies The Breathing House – a house for a family that has been dwelling in the site for many years. This home was made after bringing down their old property while staying true to their values and traditions.
A triple height central courtyard flanking the northern wall brings plentiful light into the house throughout the day and the stack effect facilitated by the sectional play keeps the indoors comfortable.
The facade is clad in a pink sandstone neatly composed with various balconies and greenery adding warmth to the western elevation while making the indoors light and breezy. Design of the bridge on the topmost floor offers a beautiful experience where the play of light and shadow can be enjoyed. It leads to a common terrace and meditative space from which the whole essence of the house can be blissfully savoured.

A smartly located central courtyard, understated and elegant interiors, connectivity across various floors and ample access to natural light and ventilation are some key highlights of the project. The architects walk through the house, giving an insight into various design details and how they planned the house vertically to enhance the microclimate and connectivity in the house.
