The facade of the Ultimate House, designed by Studio 2+2, features a dynamic interplay of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) and exposed Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC). This combination creates a lightweight yet robust structure, embodying sinuous forms inspired by cosmic themes and Indian mythology.
The GFRC allows for intricate, curvilinear shapes that enhance the aesthetic appeal while maintaining durability. In contrast, the exposed RCC highlights the raw beauty of concrete, adding a tactile dimension to the facade. This material pairing not only supports the architectural vision but also ensures seamless integration with the surrounding landscape, reflecting the homeowners’ desire for a tranquil retreat that harmonizes with nature.
