This Eco Friendly Home in Rural Maharashtra Involved Village Craftsmen ( Home Tour)

Nestled by the tranquil Vaitarna Lake in Zharwad, Nashik, stands a holiday haven named Terra, a testament to the harmonious dance between community and nature. Crafted with a deep reverence for the earth, this dwelling seamlessly intertwines with the surrounding forest, forging a bond as timeless as the landscape itself. Approaching the site, one is greeted not by a mere house, but by a symphony of nature and architecture entwined. Sitting upon a sloping terrain, amidst the embrace of dense vegetation, Terra emerges as a beacon of unity with its environment and the context. Born during the solitude of the COVID19 lockdown, this project challenges the notion of isolation, birthing connections that blossomed alongside its construction. Guided by the wisdom of locals, artisans, and the vision of the clients who are a doctor couple with a passion for the outdoors, Terra stands as a testament to the collaborative spirit that breathed life into its mudladen cob and stone walls.
