An Ode to India’s Modernist Movement

B23 | Delhi

An ode to India’s modernist movement, B23 is a New Delhi residence that is designed around the ideas of climate response, ample daylight, and positive spaces. The exterior of the structure is composed of brick cavity walls cladded with a heat-reflecting, stone aggregate finish. The walls, along with carefully planned glazing and openings on the north and south sides, work to limit heat ingress. The home is tactically punctured by skylights that bring in abundant natural light into the interior spaces. The interiors are kept minimal, and feature reused wooden flooring and modular, reconfigurable furniture.
