Natural and local materials are used throughout, including exposed brick, beaten copper, raw steel, natural wood, polished and unpolished kota stone, and traditional fabrics. A Pichwai artwork spans one full wall and a wooden swing marks the living area. Vertical fins on the east side, a triple height central space and skylights shape light and shadow and support cross ventilation.
