Indian design studio 4site Architect designs the House of Greens which features multiple planted balconies around the open living spaces. The House of Greens is located in Bangalore for a family who loves nature. There are four bedrooms and it is designed to celebrate the location and its history of green spaces and parks.
Bangalore is known as the 'garden city' of the country. The house is also defined by its large floor plates that extend to create space for the garden terraces. Founder of the studio, Chandrakant Kanthigavi speaks to Dezeen about the design project, stating "As a tribute to Bangalore, the theme of the house is to reflect the garden and abundance of green spaces. The concept of the house was carefully conceived to offer a garden experience in every space."
