The villa in Khandala, designed for Mr. Swapnil, combines modern steel architecture with the timeless charm of chira stone, a locally sourced material known for its durability and rustic appeal. Chira stone, a red sandstone, is widely used in construction due to its strength and resistance to weathering, making it an ideal choice for the villa's exterior and structural elements. Its porous texture allows for natural cooling, which is especially beneficial in the tropical climate of Khandala, keeping the interiors cool and comfortable. Additionally, the stone's natural variations in color and texture add a distinctive character to the villa, blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. The combination of steel and chira stone not only ensures the villa's long-lasting resilience but also creates a harmonious fusion of contemporary design and local tradition.
