A wellness retreat on a steep forested slope in Coorg, developed to its final scheme: villas under curved, winged roofs that hover over the forest.

The site

A steep slope of coffee and silver oak above a river; the plan came from a drone survey and contour model of the site.

The idea

Touch the hill lightly. Villas on slim columns and long cantilevered decks, roofs that curve like wings, paths that follow the contours.

Where it stands

Taken to the final design stage in 2021; the project did not go ahead.
