Angular Abode | Indore, India
Situated on a 7,200 sq.ft plot within the agrarian landscape of Kadwali Bujurg on the outskirts of Indore, Angular Abode is a contemporary family residence designed for a joint family seeking a home that is modern in expression yet calm, humble, and deeply connected to its surroundings. Conceived as a G+1 residence with an approximate ground coverage of 2,500 sq.ft, the project explores the relationship between geometry, climate, landscape, and everyday living.
The architectural identity emerges from a composition of intersecting geometric volumes anchored by a dramatic inclined roof plane that defines the arrival experience and gives the residence its distinctive character. Rather than relying on ornamentation, the design derives its expression through form itself. Projecting planes, sharp lines, and layered masses create depth, movement, and shadow, while also functioning as passive climatic devices that reduce solar exposure and enhance thermal comfort in the region's hot climate.
