House with 3 trees was an architectural and interior project for us. When the client came to us, it was just a ground +1 structure. We modified the whole edifice to make it a G+2 structure. The client wanted the ground floor as the common floor, the first floor as their floor and the second floor as their son’s floor. That was the mandate that was given to us. Since it was an old structure, we had to work a lot structurally, architecturally and interior wise to maximize the space because the floor plate was only 2000 sq. ft. for each floor and the open area around is very less. Our mandate was how can we increase in terms of space and where. The space is about 1800 - 2000 sq. ft. per floor. The clients are a family consisting of a 90-year-old mother, the parents (65-70 years old), their son, who’s married and has a younger daughter (5-6 years old).
