Client Vision and Design Objectives
ASK
Jain monks renounce all material possessions, including clothing, as part of their profound spiritual journey toward detachment and self-purification. This made it essential to create an environment that remains cool in summers and warm in winters, offering protection from extreme weather conditions.
RESULT
To achieve natural climate control, we incorporated natural wood paneling on the walls and floors, enhancing thermal insulation while maintaining a soothing aesthetic. The result is a space that radiates calmness and positivity, enveloping anyone inside in a deeply peaceful energy.
