The design is based in Leh, Ladakh and is to build an artist’s residence, studio and exhibition space as well as a homestay which can withstand the region’s harsh environment while consuming the least amount of energy possible. The building’s design, which doubles as a home and a studio, relies heavily on the idea to provide effective heat gain while making logical use of the contour levels. It also makes use of the idea of earth berming, double-layered facades and sunspaces while keeping all the buffer activity spaces towards the north.
