The standout feature? A gabion wall filled with stones gathered right from the site. It curves protectively around the house. Rocks are placed according to the anthropometrical activities inside the spaces, gives a view towards the valley. Kennedy mentioned “Main challenge was- I wanted to have a great view but also did not want the direct wind flow.” “There is always a difference between viewing directly and viewing indirectly at a sight, the indirect look always gives interesting factor and increase an urge to find out about the space.” the architects continued. The materials used throughout echo a deep commitment to sustainability: poured earth for the walls, green oxide flooring to naturally cool interiors, and reclaimed wood for furnishings. The design also features a stepped central courtyard with a sunken pool, open to the sky, anchoring the home in nature and allowing light and air to flow effortlessly through the space.Each room faces northward, soaking in gentle daylight and opening up to valley views through sliding glass doors. A concrete terrace extends toward an infinity pool, which the architects describe as a “connecting bridge between human and nature.” The building’s wood elements, repurposed from scrap, creating doors, bar tables, armchairs, bar stools, and kitchen cabinets, embodying a commitment to sustainability. “To avoid disturbing the natural landform, we used what was already there. The house didn’t need to fight the landscape—it needed to camouflage with it,”says senior architect Shivani Saran S K. And it does. Kennedy’s work shows the influence of mentor and sustainability pioneer Vinu Daniel of Wallmakers. With mud-toned walls, filtered light, and spaces that feel more found than built, The Infinite Rise dissolves into the mountain.
