Mandwa
1981 (Unbuilt)

For Mr G. Khandwala: Ten weekend houses on the side of a hill, sloping down to Mandwa beach, across the harbour from Bombay. Like the Cyclone Relief project, these houses differentiate between those areas that have to be secure and those that can be airy and open. The main living areas are under a large sheltering roof, with no walls to block the sea-breezes. A basic set of rooms form a secure block, above which is the mezzanine deck for extra guests to sleep at night, or for reading a book in the long hot afternoons.
