Approaching the site, one is greeted not by a mere house, but by a symphony of nature and architecture entwined. Sitting upon a sloping terrain, amidst the embrace of dense vegetation, Terra emerges as a beacon of unity with its environment and the context.
Born during the solitude of the COVID-19 lockdown, this project challenges the notion of isolation, birthing connections that blossomed alongside its construction. Guided by the wisdom of locals, artisans, and the vision of the clients who are a doctor couple with a passion for the outdoors, Terra stands as a testament to the collaborative spirit that breathed life into its mud-laden cob and stone walls.
With every room carefully designed to embrace the serenity of the forest and the serenade of the lake, Terra beckons its inhabitants to embrace the beauty of outdoor living. From sunlit verandas to the cozy intimacy of the attic, every space within this dwelling sings the song of nature's embrace.

Lime-plastered walls stand as a testament to timeless craftsmanship, while local basalt stone retention walls anchor the structure firmly to the land it calls home. Within its sturdy frame, lime concrete, fortified with the resilience of bamboo, ensures enduring strength against the passage of time. Every detail of Terra is a love letter to its surroundings, with local wood species lending their warmth to inbuilt furniture and storages. Terra speaks of connections and bonds of human hands and natural elements, a testament to the beauty of community-driven architecture.

Its feel like home not like weird modern hotel kind of homes

This is one of the best homes I have ever seen physically or on youtube. The house is so much blended with it's surrounding and landscape that it does not feel you are living in a house. What a masterpiece👏👌

The most beautiful sustainable home I've seen till date. Just imagining sleeping in that room hearing the stream is so soothing. Congratulations to the artisans, architects and owners

This the home. I like the concept of using local materials because they are made for that place.

One of the best projects I saw on buildofy.

The blend of local terrain, locally available materials and in-general being in touch with the nature has made the home look like a home - this place feels comfortable, this place feels like a home. I'm a local boy, and my native home have the carved staircase as well. The home looks so thoughtful, and well designed - and at place - no overbombarding of elements to showcase luxury. I love how it blends with the terrain, so beautiful <3
