A Sustainable Farmhouse in Wada
Set in the quiet countryside of Wada, near Mumbai, this farmhouse is a calm, grounded retreat — designed to embrace simplicity, elegance, and sustainability. Crafted for a family seeking a slower, more conscious way of living, the architecture reflects a clean, modern aesthetic softened by earthy textures and subtle detailing.
