The Ring House | studio prAcademics
The Ring House is situated in Jaspur, a northern suburb of Ahmedabad. It’s uniquely positioned with a water canal running along its southern border and enveloped by agricultural fields on all other sides. The site is a haven for a diverse range of birds due to the presence of water, green fields, and over 120 trees, predominantly Mango and Chickoo (Sapodilla) trees. This rich natural environment plays a significant role in the local biodiversity.

The Ring House’s Concept Design
The primary purpose of this project is to create a weekend retreat for a large family, including 14 members, with four children under the age of ten. Given the site’s natural beauty, our approach was to carefully integrate the architectural structure without disturbing the existing features and trees. We identified a zone without fruit trees and sculpted the compact building to reduce its footprint. The site features varying contour levels, and our design evolved to harmonize with the existing landscape contours. © Inclined Studio
The house’s location was elevated by 3 meters, creating a raised platform with grown lawn areas. This elevated platform partially accommodates the building while the remaining built areas extend as cantilevers. This elevated positioning offers numerous opportunities for the forecourt and house to be surrounded by the lush foliage of mature fruit trees, with birds frequently visible from close quarters.
