About Skewed 別墅

Skewed係一座座落於印度蘇拉特嘅獨立別墅。呢間屋面積達11,000平方呎,設計上規劃成一系列互相連貫嘅景致。各建築元素刻意偏離直線軸,喺立體造型入面營造出多變嘅視覺角度。簡約嘅美學風格、精簡嘅物料配搭,以及同大自然緊密連繫嘅設計理念,貫穿成個項目。屋內廣泛採用黑色花崗岩地板、混凝土同灰泥牆身,以及柚木窗框同室內木作。二樓嘅花園由後拉式預應力樓板承托,同成間屋連成一體。

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.

Production Technology: Materials
Flooring: Black Granite
Walls: Concrete and plaster
Slatted compound wall: Valsadi teak
Windows and interior woodwork: Burma teak and Valsadi teak
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.
