Cielo

Cielo is a compact residential building. On a relatively small site of 900 sq.m. a total buildable area of 3600 sq.m. is built based upon the prevalent rules & client requirements.

The mandatory open spaces on all sides generates a buildable area of only 270 sq.m. at each floor.

A single 4 bedroom apartment is planned at each floor in this 12 storeyed building.

3 of the bedrooms are located on 3 corners with the kitchen forming the 4th corner to facilitate cross-ventilation in each room. The living spaces are centrally located to form the focal social interaction space.

Nagpur has extensive summers and temperature in excess of 40°C for 8 months annually.

Taking cognizance of this climate each of the main rooms opens into 2 balcony spaces, one open and one screened. This helps to reduce heat gain substantially, simultaneously providing sheltered open spaces to each room.
