Yellow Stone House, at Indore, by Span Architects

Span Architects

As the name suggests, the abode carries an interesting identity of the yellow stone cladding along with the majority of the facade. The entire elevation has a few vertical surfaces of walls that incline at angles taking it away from the two-dimensional world of drawing. This in turn helps to capture a sensation of movement over in a static state. The structure, almost frozen in movement embraces the concept of light and ventilation with large openings, transparent surfaces, and shadow play. – Span Architects

Turning to stone at Stone – Print Villa, at Utter Pradesh, by Sian Architects

Sian Architects

Flanked by the archaeological ruins of Vidura and Hastinapur and the idealistic ‘shiny’ urbanity of New Delhi, Meerut often finds itself in a ‘dilemma of identity’. Over time, the culture of the city, the notion of its inhabitants and the built environment has persistently deconstructed so much so that it has lost much of its contextual ‘evenness’. This traction between ‘nostalgia’ and ‘aspiration’ is especially visible in the old neighbourhoods or ‘mohallas’ of the city, which incidentally also becomes an active background for the vision behind Stone-Print Villa. – Sian Architects
