RIO DE GOA

Located on a sloping site close to Panjim, the site enjoys great views of the river towards the north and east, hills towards the rear and ocean beyond towards the north-west.

The apartments are designed around courtyards with the intent of maximizing long-range views from the units. As a driving concept for the inner courtyard, we also created a 'secret garden' which would provide protected private spaces between low green hedges for residents to enjoy a quiet moment in the shadow of the courtyard. To design the facade, we took inspiration from the colours and spirit of the city. The vibrancy and diversity of the unique local traditional architecture relayed onto the design to break the building mass into a series of perceivable buildings.
