The house was built on a narrow piece of land, with cattle on one side and orchards of pomegranate, flowers, and fodder crops on the other. The family always wanted to keep a close eye on their cattle and farms, so the house had to allow them to do that throughout the day.

The farmer and his son had a few clear wishes - a pitched roof, a courtyard, and a staircase. These ideas shaped the entire design. We placed windows in a way that they always opened up to something meaningful - the farms, the cattle, or the sky.

At the heart of the house is a spiral staircase that connects the courtyard and the drawing room. It became a fun corner for the children to play in. The rest of the house wraps around the court, keeping the spaces open and connected.

The fruit and flower orchards around the house now feel like part of the home. They bring in colour, scent, and a sense of calm, naturally forming the landscape that surrounds everyday life.
