MS House by Studio Saransh rises among nine mature neem trees in Ahmedabad, India, turning a Brutalist concrete shell into a porous, climate-aware family home. The architects organize the house around a central double-height bay that frames the canopy, threading courtyards, verandahs, and shaded terraces so daily rituals stay in step with breeze, filtered sun, and the soft acoustics of water.
Located in Austin, Texas, the Retama House is a captivating residential project designed by A Parallel Architecture in 2021. This single-family home masterfully integrates with a magnificent split-trunk live oak, leveraging its long limbs and lush canopy for shade, privacy, and a harmonious connection to the surrounding landscape. The architecture’s rigorously compact shape belies a surprisingly generous interior experience, with a double-height central atrium that reflects the presence of the tree and offers tree-house-like views.
