A Respite House Amid Nature

The picturesque village of Baldeyan is near the erstwhile British summer capital of Shimla. Famous for its subtropical highland climate, the area is a popular tourist destination, providing respite from the fierce summer heat within a reasonable drive from the plains.

Sited above the road, the brief was to have valley views from all the principal living spaces. This became the parti of the plan – two parallel linear volumes perpendicular to the view.
