A Modern Concrete House in the Himalayas: Interior Design Ideas

A Modern Concrete House in the Himalayas

Posted: 16 Jan 2013 10:26 AM PST

This stunning modern mountain retreat, perched on a hill within the Himalayan ranges, offers a breathtaking panoramic vista from both the outdoors and indoors as well. Rajiv Saini & Associates built the private weekend residence for clients wanting to escape from the hustle and bustle of their Delhi lifestyle. It boasts two stories, two wings and 8,000 square feet of living space.

An origami-like roof, inspired by the surrounding mountain ranges, caps the structure of inclined concrete planes which encloses the three entrances, living room, dining room and kitchen.

All bedrooms and bathrooms are independent of one another with each jutting out from the hillside, opening onto private wooden decks.

Windows are used throughout the home to create an invisible barrier between the house's interior and the outdoors.

The Western wing of the home features 2 bedrooms, multimedia room, storage rooms and a massage and steam room.

Exposed concrete can be found throughout the house along with teak timber floors and accent walls.

Gorgeous red hues are used sparingly throughout the house creating pops of brilliant color which is quite unexpected placed amongst the surrounding harsher interior elements.
