The East edge of the house forms the entrance passage, flanked by the building on one side and by a compound wall on the other, which rises to brace the water tower at the South-East vertex. The terrace line acting as the edifice on the right while moving up the entrance passage climbs down a flight of steps to reveal the arrival court – the prelude to the experience, located at the node anchoring the two arms of the ‘L’ of the house-form, which corresponds to the plot geometry. Each arm accommodates a generous living bay open on both ends and flanked on one side by servant spaces.
