COROLLARY OF THE COAST

A sprawling 4500 sq. ft. bungalow located in the konkan region of maharashtra at kankavli, on the mumbai-goa highway boasts of an inviting entrance with a facade clad in shera wood and stone with an s.s finished plate flaunting the nameplate in a bold red color. This bungalow was designed by architects anand and ashish kulkarni of the kolhapur-based firm designex. The entrance to the ground plus one structure may be found exactly in the middle of the gap between the already existing floor and the future first level. The fact that the property is near to the highway, that the rcc work is below the level of the highway, and that the bungalow has various floor levels gives it a fascinating atmosphere. The architects have thoughtfully landscaped part of the living area and highlighted it with a double-height sloping roof with skylights to let in natural light and foster a willowy, shifting shadow-play throughout the day in order to enhance this feature and contextualize it with the proximity of the Konkan coastline. With its own separate entrance, the residence is prepared to house a home office for its inhabitants. This as well as sumptuous living rooms – both public and private – are arranged between the two stories, and the feeling of space is cultivated with the use of glass in the flooring, railing, balconies, and as partition walls. The decoration quotient is comprised of a subdued color palette with one or two colors that stand out, straight lines, and a somewhat excessive amount of pattern. Nevertheless, there is a predominance of an utilitarian appeal since the residence does not include any surplus baggage in the form of artifacts, superfluous furniture, and the like. Lighting is well used, with both cove and ambient lighting working together to provide the ambiance of the rooms. A play of levels between floors and to emphasize functional distinctions is a subtle yet praiseworthy feature of architecture. For example, the puja space, which does not have any walls, has its floor elevated slightly above the living area, with stark white vitrified flooring. The puja is visually separated from the living room by a glass floor with led lighting and white polished stones underneath it, which is located at the same level as the living area. Additionally, the inside-outside equation of the home, which includes the terraces that open out to a vista of coconut trees, amplifies the coastal vibe and makes the house a refuge that can be enjoyed in all weather.
