    The document summarizes a case study for a residence designed for an artist, her husband, and their two children. The residence includes three rooms on two levels, with the father's room on the lower floor and the son and guest rooms upstairs. The plan is organized around a northern courtyard and water body, with the living room overlooking it. The entrance opens onto a screened verandah facing the water body. This design allows natural light throughout while preventing direct sunlight in the central living space. The interconnected volumes and diagonal placement of bedrooms increases interaction between family members.

    Architects: Charged Voids · The project houses a total of three rooms, two master bedrooms for the I
    Area:370.0 m² father & son and a guest room. The father was housed on the lower floor while T
    the son’s room & the guest room are planned on the upper level. The father's
    E

    · The plan was organized around a northern
    courtyard & water body with the central
    space i.e., the living room looking into it.
    D
    E
    · The entrance was conceived through a
    screened verandah overlooking the water S
    body on one side & living room in the front. I
    · This allowed for a complete absence of G
    window coverings as no direct sunlight
    penetrated the central space but there was
    N
    ample natural light throughout the day. The
    interconnecting volumes in the section
    allow the cross axes to be visible as soon
    as one enters the house.

    GUIDED BY:-
    ENTRANCE IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED
    AR. ANJU
    WITH THE WATERBODY WHICH ALSO
    BRINGS COOL AIR INTO HOUSE. THE MANI
    DOUBLE HEIGHT AREA REDUCES HEAT KALITA
    BUILDUP. NO DIRECT SUNLIGHT ENTERS
    THE HOUSE. THE HOUSE IS VERY
    CLEVERLY DESIGNED INTEGRATING THE REMARKS:
    TANGIBLE AS WELL AS INTANGIBLE
    ASPECTS.

    CONCLUSION:-
    BY THIS CASE STUDY, I CAME TO KNOW ABOUT PLANNING AND HIERARCHY OF SCALE:
    SPACES. THE CONNECTION WITH THE WATERBODY REPRESENTS INDOOR NTS
    OUTDOOR RELATIONSHIP. THE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT DOUBLE HEIGHT SPACES
    AND MATERIAL PALETTE. THE CLIMATE RESPONSIVE ASPECTS OF THE BUILDING.
