Seldom do we find the opportunity to build in a surrounding rich with shades and textures of various mature trees in the context of our city, Karachi. The approach to the home designed for a family of four is lined with dense plantation leading up to a Neem tree marking the entrance. While the other Neem tree, situated across the site provides shelter for pleasant evenings spent outdoors under its shade.

The Neem trees anchor the dwelling opening onto a veranda and the garden ahead. The living quarters positioned on the floor above provide the opportunity to interact with the canopy of the trees, often caught swaying with the wind. The terrace becomes a shared space for celebrations overlooking the garden with a mighty Banyan tree in sight.
