House on Pali Hill inMumbai, India by Studio Mumbai Architect

The House on Pali Hill was designed by Studio Mumbai Architect as a refuge from the bustle of Mumbai. An existing house on a narrow plot was stripped until only the concrete skeleton remained. It is a haven of peace in the midst of this great city that runs 24 hours over 24 hours. The surrounding trees and wood screens create an intimate setting and ensure protection against the urban environment of Mumbai. The building is constructed from a series of Louvres made from hardy species of palm. Light filters through the house just as it does through a the trees.
