Woodrose Club - Ochre Architects

Deriving their design from the forces of the site, Bengaluru based Ochre Architects render a modern image to Woodrose Club with refined formal and material language.

The Woodrose Club, situated in one of the posh suburban localities of Bengaluru is built on a site with an age old plantation with due consideration to the quality of green on the site. Multiple forms and elements are brought together in a balanced composition such that the spaces flow into one another forming informal and intuitive boundaries between them.

The porous volumes of the built spaces connect the spaces visually dissolving boundaries and binding the space in whole with uninterrupted spatial quality. The stacking of floors and the plantation as a part of an extended landscape shade the building through casting of own shadows. Green cover is taken to the first level of the building thus making the earth on top of a floor slab prevent induction of heat and provide an incubating surface. Natural light penetrates to most of the designed spaces through a relatively transparent facade. The building thus explores various geometries to create formal compositions and modern material aesthetics.
