What it's made of
  • exposed brick band
  • terracotta jali screen
  • sand-finish ochre render
  • cantilevered sun-shade slab

This G+1 duplex on a 30x50 Ahmedabad plot answers the city's brutal hot-dry summers with a large terracotta jali screen that shades the western bedrooms while letting evening breezes through. An exposed brick band nods to Ahmedabad's Kahn-and-Doshi modernist lineage, paired with an earthy ochre render that hides dust. Cantilevered RCC sun-shade slabs throw deep shadow over every opening. The recessed entry sits to the favoured north-east per Vastu. You can switch finishes to compare looks before deciding.
