Design Highlight | Folded Terracotta Facade
Tube House, Pune District, Maharashtra

The folded terracotta façade of Tube House is more than a visual statement. It is a climate-responsive skin shaped by sunlight, shadow, and airflow. Designed to face the harsh southern sun, angular slabs and walls work together to diffuse heat while inviting filtered daylight and ventilation into the home. Throughout the day, the facade casts crisp geometric shadows, turning the exterior into a constantly shifting play of light and form.
