Amongst the template contemporary houses in this Shahbad neighborhood in Haryana, sits a home that announces itself through a lively green wall. Adorned with plants throughout the exposed concrete façade, Nature’s Abode stands out, blends in, as well as grows along with nature. #MyGreatFacade is a series presented by Fenesta Windows in association with #Buildofy The greens play an important role in architect Tawish Tayal’s first home, with an intention to make it climate-friendly for his clients. The harsh North Indian weather is combatted through design elements like the open floor plan, expansive openings, planters, as well as a central courtyard cutting through the volume. This creates well-ventilated living spaces that are naturally lit throughout.

Principal Architect Tawish Tayal walks us through the home, insightfully breaking down the design, the material palette, as well as incorporating greenery into architecture that justifies the term ‘built environment.’ Architectural Journalist: Jaidev Tripathy Cinematography: Purnesh Dev Nikhanj & Kalkie Productions #indianarchitecture #indianhome #contemporaryhome #nature #naturallight #courtyard #facade #facadedesign #film #architecturefilm #Haryana #India #Buildofy
