Explore three unique homes that showcase innovative design and practicality, from a sculptural house in Rajasthan to a concrete curtain-clad home in Melbourne and a sustainable residence in Japan.
Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.A sculptural sun hat of a home, this Rajasthan house has rooms that are wrapped in a waved second skin, creating cooler semi‑open spaces that are accessed through large arched openings. Inside, a corridor with a pool at one end runs through the building, with living areas given different ceiling heights depending on their use.
Traditional handcraftsmanship is fused with cutting-edge engineering in this house in Jaipur, India. Every element – from the basement raft to the retaining walls and lintels – is crafted from stone blocks taken from a local quarry or excavated from the site. The outcome? An enveloping, contemporary space with vaulted ceilings, gigantic circular windows and gravity-defying zigzagging staircases.
Rising from the remains of a farmhouse destroyed during earthquakes in Italy, Casa Ward’s stone-clad concrete frame will resist future seismic shocks. The house in Sarnano faces the Sibillini Mountains, and its layout is staggered with alternating courtyards and simple open-plan interiors that are oriented towards views of the mountainscape.
