Winterfell House / Prithvi Architects

Completed in 2023 in India. Images by Jino Sam, Syam Sreesylam. Winterfell is a work of camouflaged design, a structure that melds organical

"The walls, constructed from mud, evoke the earth's warmth in habitable spaces, while the service zones, such as toilets and staircases, are finished in gray tones that echo the tint of the natural rocks of the area. Sustainable building techniques bring this vision to life. Techniques like poured earth or raw earth concrete, which contain a small proportion of cement, have been used to create resilient walls with minimal ecological impact. To complement, lightweight materials like ferrocement have also been used.  "

CHUZHI House / Wallmakers

Completed in 2022 in Shoolagiri, India. Images by Syam Sreesylam. Chuzhi is a project that helps to understand what can be built in odd sites that are generally deemed ‘unsuitable’ for construction. Situated in a...

“ Chuzhi as the meaning suggests in Malayalam, “whirpool” are swirls of precast poured debris earth composite bottle beams, fashioned from 4000 discarded plastic bottles designed around the three large Tamarind trees on site. The idea was to make a subterranean home that would originate from the rock bed, forming multiple whirls around the tree and adjoining to create a secure private space below for the residents and a space around the trees above that ensures that the thick vegetation and ecosystem continues to thrive undisturbed.

The idea was to allow the natural ecosystem of trees and the surroundings to be retained as it is above the house, without compromising on the comfort of the inhabitants. Chuzhi is a two-bedroom residence designed with an open layout and minimalistic interiors and has floors that have been made of reclaimed wood that has been pieced together. But the surprising fact is that the building manages to tuck itself away into the landscape like a snake curling up under a rock on a hot day. ”
