Street elevation render of the sample Taloja bungalow case study

The brief.

The plot sloped eight metres across its width, and two earlier plans had been rejected for retaining-structure and FSI miscalculations.

We re-cut the programme into three stepped levels that follow the contour, converting the difficult slope into split-level terraces rather than fighting it with expensive retaining walls.

Design approach.

Each terrace opens to the valley view while remaining shielded from the road above through planted berms.

Stepped massing also simplified storm-water management — a condition that had stalled earlier submissions.

Highlights.

  • 01Contour-following stepped levels avoid heavy retaining
  • 02Excavation rubble reused as landscape masonry
  • 03Approval strategy resolved two prior rejections
Materials
Rubble masonry from site excavation, fly-ash concrete, Mangalore-tile roofs.
Approvals
  • Sanctioned plan revised and approved
  • Commencement Certificate obtained
  • Stage-wise CC tracking in progress
