\"Antriya,<\/div>\n

Indian architecture studio 23 Degrees Design Shift has created a five-bedroom weekend home<\/a> surrounded by a moat near Hyderabad<\/a>, India.<\/span><\/p>\n

Named Antriya, the 1,350-square-metre (14,530-square-foot) holiday home for a multi-generational family is located on a five-acre site in Muchintal on the outskirts of Hyderabad.<\/p>\n

23 Degrees Design Shift<\/a> carved out a moat-like channel around the house to prevent snakes and other creatures from crawling in. Within the protective moat, the two-storey, five-bedroom house is arranged around three large khammam sandstone walls that form its primary structure.<\/p>\n

“The whole house in a nutshell is designed using three linear stone walls providing a sense of direction, sense of privacy and sense of cosiness through their relative scale,” the studio explained.<\/p>\n

The first sandstone wall stands alongside the home’s main living and entertaining spaces.<\/p>\n

On the ground floor it rises alongside an open, veranda-like seating area that opens out onto an outdoor conversation pit. Above this is a secondary seating area as well as the principal bedroom is reached by a sculptural spiral staircase.<\/p>\n

The second wall runs across the home separating the living areas \u2013 kitchen, living and dining spaces, from four en-suite bedrooms on the ground floor.<\/p>\n

Finally, a third wall\u00a0extends from the house towards the entrance driveway and forms the main structure of an adjoining pool house.<\/p>\n
