The design aims to enable the possibility of enjoying marine biodiversity via architectural intervention. The architectural form was inspired by the amphibian animal family which can survive both on land and in water. The house mimics this trait of the amphibian by having the structure partially submerged in water and partially above it.

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.
