Duplex villa

A duplex villa in the BHEL township, finished in 2016. Grey stone cladding and deep balconies face the street, with a lawn and pergola on the roof terrace.

Inside, a double-height living and dining room opens onto a floating staircase. Each room has its own palette, from the timber-and-stone feature walls downstairs to the bedrooms above.
