About Skewed Villa

Skewed ir atsevišķi stāvoša villa, kas atrodas Suratā, Indijā. Māja aizņem 11 000 kvadrātpēdu platību un ir plānota kā savstarpēji savienotu skatu virkne. Elementi ir nedaudz nobīdīti no taisnas līnijas, kas rada dažādas perspektīvas trīsdimensiju formā. Dizainu vada vienkārša estētika, minimāla materiālu palete un cieša saikne ar dabu. Visā mājā izmantoti melnā granīta grīdas segumi, betona un apmetuma sienas, kā arī tīkkoka logi un interjera galdniecības darbi. Pirmā stāva dārzu balsta priekšspriegota plātne, un tas savieno visu māju vienotā veselumā.

Unique Properties
Simple aesthetics, a minimal material palette and connections to nature are the main drivers of the design of the Skewed House,the architect’s debut through his firm Studio Lagom. The standalone 11,000-square-foot villa seeks to create an oasis of serenity in Surat’s typical urban milieu through a programme that departs from typical planning of this typology.

Design Challenge
Taking the complete garden on the first floor which connects with entire house was the major challenge. But the research was carried accordingly and it was overcomed by proving a post tensioned slab.
Inspiration
The architect’s deep interest in photography helped him visualize this project as a series of interconnected vistas, and was also responsible for the ‘skewedness’ of Skewed House. Manifested subtly as elements shifted slightly off the straight line, this was an exercise in creating vistas and perspectives, and adding more life to a three-dimensional object.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2011 in Surat and finished in August 2017 in Surat.
Operation Flow
The standalone villa seeks to create an oasis of serenity in typical urban milieu of Surat through a programme that departs from typical planning of this typology.
The connection of inside space with nature, with simple aesthetics are the driving priciples.
