‘Five Gardens’ emerges from studies of several house plans. Material here is explored for both structure and detail. The pavilion / house reveals itself to the surrounding landscape, flora and fauna in novel assemblies. The project intimately plays with economy of material, pleasure of craft and lightness of structure. While the pavilion seamlessly connects the outside with the inside, it lends itself to create personalised spaces within itself.

Samir Raut’s studio ‘eight-twenty-three’ is an inter-disciplinary design studio co-founded by him and his classmate Siddhesh Kadam. He refers to his work ‘not only as a practice, but a collaboration of ideas, ideals and aspirations towards the pursuit of happiness’. Samir has a bachelor’s degree in architecture from the University of Mumbai and a master’s degree in design from the college of fine arts, UNSW, Sydney. As the core of the studio always remained spatial and form based explorations, the studio’s work includes spatial design, visual arts and architecture. More recently Samir is interested in to observing and exploring the relationship between the extraordinary and the mundane.
