Abhishek Ajmera Architects' Brick House in Indore, India is a modest dwelling on a 6,500-square-foot plot, spanning 8,000 square feet with four bedrooms, a basement office, common areas, and an activity room.
The project celebrates exposed brick as both a material and a design language, articulating spatial transitions, filtering light, and tying the interiors to their architectural shell using primarily brick, metal, wood, and black basalt.
The interiors feature flexibility with partitions instead of conventional walls, a double-height living room merging indoor and outdoor spaces, and a mezzanine level with a bold blue panel functioning as a workspace.
The house includes unique design elements like a hanging staircase beside a black basalt wall, bedrooms with access to natural light, and a yellow spiral staircase leading to the terrace, all designed with a focus on natural light, ventilation, and architectural textures.
