We understand this work as a succession of defined areas that are put in relation to others so that a whole functions. This is what we try to develop from its imprint. Volumetric clarity consists in determining these areas, giving them a formal identity and putting them in relation to other areas composed with the same logic.

Stacked Dwelling is a weekend house in Igatpuri, standing on a compact 360 sq m linear plot. The narrative unfolds against the majestic backdrop of the Sahyadris. The name is derived from the organisational strategy which orchestrates the interior spaces as two small houses placed on a platform, albeit cohesive in design vocabulary.
