HOUSE ON PIPES. Vacation home in coconut groves. In india

From the bungalow that was intended to be a holiday home in a 1.5 acre coconut grove, it was designed to allow the structure of the building to gently touch the ground. And to disturb the existing coconut trees in the area to a minimum
.
The building was designed in a rectangular box shape. Inserted parallel to the line of coconut trees With the coconut tree as an element of the house As though the buildings and nature are one And also being able to open the view through the building's glass panels Therefore helping the inner residents to feel closer to the nature around them
.
While the structure of this building The designer chose to use steel structure as the main material. Combined with the design of the opening, switch and drapes for privacy that Balanced fit And in order to minimize the nature of the area The design team must work with more engineers. To calculate the weight of the structure that will be transferred to the ground in the coconut grove Which is softer than other areas
.
From this problem we can see that many small steel pillars act as a weight distribution structure. Like a system of perennials that have roots And then distribute the weight and strength with roots
.
The part of the house is surrounded by 3 layers of walls consisting of particleboard boards on the innermost floor. The middle layer is glass fiber to help prevent heat And ending with ashes on the outer wall In order to cool down before entering the house This house in the coconut groves Therefore cool and suitable for resting all day
