Originally intended for a future apartment building, the client's land lay dormant due to underdeveloped infrastructure and road connections. However, a visionary idea took root – to create a vacation haven where Sujit and his grandchildren could escape the bustling city and forge a profound connection with nature. Recognizing the plight of modern urban children, who often miss out on the simple joys of trees, rain, and open fields, our design aimed to restore that bond and encapsulate the spirit of rural life within an urban context.

Our primary aim was to provide Sujit's grandchildren with an immersive experience of nature, reminiscent of the idyllic village life in Bangladesh. To achieve this, we carefully conceptualized a layout that weaves together private spaces, gardens, and leisure areas into a harmonious whole.

 Upon arrival, visitors are greeted by a grand entrance, sheltered by a vaulted roof, leading seamlessly to the main living space. An archway marks the transition, inviting occupants to embark on a sensory journey.

The heart of the house boasts an ingenious design – a slender swimming pool, bridging the interior and exterior spaces. While the indoor section caters to the little ones with a playful kids' pool, the exterior becomes an oasis for adults to unwind.

The dining area, seamlessly linked to an open kitchen, celebrates communal dining and offers a culinary experience that engages the senses.

A succession of gardens creates layers of privacy and tranquillity. An exterior garden extends beyond a perforated wall, ensuring security while connecting inhabitants with nature. Further in lies a more intimate private garden, offering a serene retreat for reflection and relaxation.

Thoughtfully placed sleeping spaces benefit from serene views of the yard and private garden, harmonizing rest with nature's rhythms.

A unique architectural feature, the inverted shade roof, pays homage to local building practices. It captures rainwater, which serves multiple practical purposes, marrying tradition with sustainability.

The house's load-bearing structure is crafted from rich red bricks, a nod to time-honoured techniques. The steel inverted shade roof not only symbolizes our cultural heritage but also serves as a sustainable solution, collecting rainwater to nourish the gardens and enhance self-sufficiency.

The "Vacation House for Sujit and His Grandchildren" offers a haven where urbanites can escape to embrace nature's embrace. This harmonious blend of contemporary design, traditional elements, and thoughtful layout provides a unique space for family bonding, relaxation, and rejuvenation.

At Chinta Sthapatya, we take pride in creating spaces that bridge the gap between modern living and our cultural roots. This vacation house is not just a structure; it's an embodiment of a vision, a testament to the power of architecture to connect generations and enrich lives. Join us in celebrating this journey from urban to rural, from bricks to bonding, and from tradition to modernity.
