A compact G+1 house with a punishing 15-foot front on a tight Mumbai lane, the reality of building in India's most land-starved city. The design works the narrow vertical face with a single accent strip and a small juliet balcony, since there is almost no setback. Mumbai's heavy monsoon makes the small projecting hoods over windows essential. A charcoal-and-white scheme keeps the slim face looking taller and sharper. You can switch finishes to compare looks before deciding.
