Ascending House / RSA

The Ascending house is in Ahmedabad, completed in December 2022. The massing of the house is designed with step formation to cater to higher side requirements along with open spaces on each floor. The bulk was broken into segments and was designed with a concept of Jenga blocks and was fragmented as per ascending floor plates. The design caters to cozy scale terraces to rooms, which emphasize the extruded cuboids. In the brief, we were told that clients believe in the puja area to a great extent. As the design outcome, the circular concrete mass was designed with a fixed glass slit on top. This space was formed as the dynamic element for the daytime with a height of 16ft.
