THE BARE AND DYNAMIC

LOCATED IN AHMEDABAD, THE HS HOUSE, DESIGNED BY STUDIO SARANSH, IS A COMPACT FAMILY HOME THAT DEPLOYS BARE MINIMUM MATERIALITY AND FORM TO CREATE DYNAMISM
THE BARE AND DYNAMIC

Situated in the heart of the city of Ahmedabad, HS house is a compact family home with common walls shared with the houses adjacent to it. This context gets a little tricky as buildings on both sides were supposed to remain untouched while the house in between them, was to be demolished and built again.

While designing HS House, the biggest contextual challenge was that the light and ventilation were only possible through the two short sides of the house. This was the defining factor behind the design, which led to the insertion of a large court in the middle, to light up the entire house. The glass box above this court is used as a hot air attractor creating an air draft upwards, which is then removed through small openings at both the sides.

Spatially, the house is planned in a simple manner. The first level is a gathering area with a small back garden and a central court garden which is the space that one first enters into. This level goes down to a basement space meant for future development, and goes up to the kitchen and dining level with a large outdoor balcony that opens in the front
