The housing project is located 60 km from Mumbai and houses 54 families of employees working at a nearby industrial facility. The apartments have been designed keeping in mind the importance of family, community, and social interaction in Indian culture. Four 540 square foot apartments are arranged along a central corridor with a staircase at the end, opening onto a large central courtyard. The goal was to create a sense of community and togetherness through shared public spaces like corridors, staircases, balconies, and outside seating areas. The simple brick and concrete construction uses local artisans and a structural system that helps scale the buildings to a more human level.

ANALYSIS
 The form of each staircase is carefully articulated to give each block a little twist and hereby
giving each an identity of its own.
 The construction system is a very simple brick and concrete system using locally available
artisans.
 The structural system is carefully calibrated to produce a facade which helps to scale the
building to a more humane level
 On the ground floor, the apartments are accessible individually having their own small semi
private space, resembling the characteristic "otla" ( raised entrance level plinth) seen in the
traditional houses of India ( pols, wadas, etc.).
 Three blocks come together along with the semi round monolithic block to form this large
central community space into which all the corridors open
