A luxury cottage-style hotel in Dharamshala, this project is meant to showcase the genuinity of Himachali design styles and aesthetics.The project was developed on the concept of giving privacy to each room while creating mergible spaces for large groups and families. a total of 18 deluxe rooms and 3 suites are divided into 2 cottages which are placed strategically on the plot to create various open areas for all age groups.
The project came with a beautiful challenge of its terrain. The site was flooded with a beautiful view of mountains, greens, sunsets and sceneries surrounding the site. The aim of the design was to let the location speak for itself with the cottage being used to highlight its beauty.
The basis of the design was to cater to the varied user base, ensuring a clear division between public and private, without hampering the aesthetic appeal or the flow of the house. This is achieved through simple volumetrics, with the two blocks bridged together, quite literally, through a glass bridge. A fine juxtaposition of the serenity of Lonavala and the modernity of Mumbai, the design aims to create an escape from a bustling busy life.
As one drives through the road surrounding the site, they are welcomed by strong volumes and tall glazings punctured by niche details, serenity of simple materials and a classic use of stones. The aim of the design is to keep a simple volume and help it shine through the interspersion of open and contained spaces, while creating landscapes that cater to a number of crowds.
