Cultivating spaces through existing trees
The landscape architecture of this farmhouse includes multiple outdoor spaces with two lawn pockets and dense plantations nested around walking trails.
The primary design concept focuses on structuring some of the old elements that could become the central points of the design narrative.
The landscape design is centered on the idea of ‘Vad Court’ by retaining the existing old ficus benghalensis. Informal seating spaces have been created around Vad with minimal hardscape intervention. The plot is divided into two lawns, the front being the public/ party lawn and the rear being the private family lawn. All of the more than 180 existing trees have been retained in the process of the construction. Informal walkways amidst plantations and trees are created to take one through nature. Some of the outdoor private spaces are created around other existing old trees like one as a hammock court.
