ARCHITECT – KAMATH REVATHI
STUDIO
• The Lakshman sagar Resort, located at the foot of the Aravalli range Lakshman Sagar was built in
the late 19th century as a hunting lodge by the then Thakur of Raipur, Lakshman Singh though with
a conservationist view of the heritage and surroundings. There re-conceptualization of Lakshman
Sagar is manifested through the endless detailing in the architecture & design.
• The original structures consisted of a colonnaded veranda and a haveli'. The colonnade, which was
used as the 'mardana', overlooks the plains on one side and the lake on the other while the three-
storey "haveli' enclosing a courtyard was used as the 'zanana’.
• The Zanana (women) quarters and Mardana (men) quarters, designed historically for the ladies and
men respectively, offer hints to Rajput culture and traditional customs like pardah or reflecting the
grandeur of mehfils & baithak.
• Spread over 32 acres along the man-made lake, the 12 cottages have been meticulously planned
and conceptualized and are located in two clusters on either side of the facilities.
• Merging Rajasthani design with eco sensibility, the twelve mud and stone cottages, supplement the
Mardana and Zanana and invoke an experience both private and symbiotic with nature.
• A swimming pool was dug out of the rocks adjacent to the original 'haveli' and fissures in the
geological formations guided the shape and form of the pool is in rock-cut architecture.
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
• The original structure consisted of a colonnaded veranda
and haveli. The colonnade which was used as the mardana.
overlooks the plain on one side and the lake on the other
while the three store haveli enclosing a courtyard was
used as the zanana.
• The property features The Zanana & Mardana which are
the common.
✓ Dining lounging areas
✓ The single rock cut swimming pool
✓ The sun-deck meant for sunbathing and leisure
✓ Private dining & live cooking
✓ A man made private lake with lounge decks
✓ An organic vegetable garden
DESIGN CONCEPT
• Introduced the Zero Kilometer design concept. This stressed their belief that while design
should be innovative and functional, efforts should be made to involve local craftsmen and
preserve local traditions. This not only brings down the cost of a project substantially, but also
reduces environment pollution entailed by transportation and makes quality control easier to
manage, in addition to involving the local craftsmen and sustaining livelihoods in the region. Eco
Friendly Architecture.
MATERIALS
• Influenced by the indigenous Rajasthani architecture, the cottages have been re-interpreted in sustainable
design using locally sourced products like wood, stone and mud.
• The cottages are located in the natural topography taking into account views, trees, rocks, wind, sun, and
drainage patterns. Design responses to these factors gave each cottage a distinct form and identity. The
materials used for building were all sourced locally -the foundations were made of local slate; the sun
dried mud bricks for the walls were made on site; local sandstone was used for door and window frames
as well as brackets, lintels and roof slabs; "kikar (Acacia) and eucalyptus logs were used as beams; local
Bidasan marble was used for flooring; bathrooms were built in sate masonry with basins carved from
solid rocks.

 METAPHORICAL EXPRESSION
The concept of space is quite a broad topic, therefore
this thesis specifically looks at two main types of spaces,
namely: threshold and public/private spaces

Permaculture uses qualities of plants

combined with the natural characteristics
of landscapes and structures, to produce
a life-supporting system for city and
country, using the smallest area possible. Private space:
It integrates ecology, landscape, organic
gardening, architecture and agro-forestry
to provide healthy food for all anywhere.
Permaculture is an approach to planning
human settlements that uses intelligent
design to increase the abundance of
natural systems, efficiency of human
activities and sustainable food rich Structural threshold :The idea of threshold
environments. was the first issue chosen as the connection
movement and place is realized through the
Public space: threshold

The problem of maintaining good

private spaces and at the same time Zoning plan :
not sacrificing important public
space is an important problem that
will have to be looked at when
designing any scheme in the city.
