Conceptualized for a multi-generational family of five, the Agrawal farmhouse is a recreational retreat designed away from home. The two-storey abode is spacious, airy and includes various elements of biophilia— large windows that enable an abundant flow of sunlight and air and plentiful greens all around. The planning of the house is designed keeping Vastu in mind, and the interior spaces progress from public spaces to private and family areas.

The internal courtyard, cocooned between the built mass, is the source of fresh air and natural sunlight in the house. The location of the courtyard allows maximum cross-ventilation between spaces, especially public spaces like the double-heightened living room, dining area, vestibule and the staircase block. Although the entire courtyard is designed to be open to the sky, it can be covered using a retractable fabric roof when required. 

The internal courtyard also reduces the dependence on artificial lighting and mechanical ventilation, making the farmhouse environmentally friendly. The spiral staircase situated adjacent to the courtyard connects the two floors and terrace. Enclosed by a skylight on the roof, the staircase receives ample natural light during the day, and adequate wind flow from the courtyard. 

All rooms have colossal aluminium thermal break windows and doors overlooking a patio or greens around the site. The windows are shielded by timber screens, enabling a play of light and shadow in the rooms. The facade is a play between elegant grey quartz stones, timber screens, full-height windows and balconies and is linear and modern.
