About Me

The Villa Sarabhai, built 1951-1955, is located in Ahmedabad, India

Purpose

This house was designed to create a cool living space, which is why the house is only separated from the outside with bamboo curtains in the residential sapces, and also why the house is positioned the way it is.

My Lovely Drawing

I captured the reoccurring geometrical shapes and the roof top garden with a couple of flowers.

Constructed of brick, rough concrete, and white coatings

I believe the author is correct when it is stated that the house has many geometrical shapes.
