This Allendale family wanted a main level where everyone had a place truly their own. With two young kids and a dog on one side of the house and Mom and Dad on the other, the challenge was designing a layout that gave each part of the family their own space without the home feeling split in two. Ridgewood Home Construction solved this by constructing the entire main level into two connected zones: a bedroom-and-bathroom wing where the kids could run around, spread out, and make noise, and a quiet corner of the house for Mom and Dad to call their own. The kitchen, primary suite, living room, bathrooms, laundry, and entry were all part of the project, so every space feels like it belongs to the family that lives there.

The form of the house has been generated as a response to its context - a combination of its setting, client requirements, building bye-laws and the prevailing climatic conditions. The layout responds to the necessity of being vaastu-compliant, a vital requirement for occupants. The stilt floor opens onto multiple lawns on the front and towards the left of the building, on the neighbouring plot. The open plan is designed to let in natural light into each storey. The basement cuts undesired light and noise from the streets and is a natural choice for housing a well-equipped entertainment section. It also houses a landscaped cutout, a sunken courtyard assisting in bringing in light and ventilation to the basement. All levels of the building house kitchens and expansive living and dining areas allowing them to work as individual units as needed. There are nine bedrooms accommodated on the ground, first and second floors, making room for guests. When one reaches the terrace floor, they’re greeted by a manicured deck with a levelled terrace garden.
