An Apartment with a Twist
The proposed apartment in ever evolving Rajagiriya, is an oasis to the busy dweller seeking for tranquility within an urban setting. It is a customized, client-oriented design solution, with each housing unit carrying a unique aesthetic in its exterior view.   

This four-story apartment was designed to give uniqueness to each residence, although all units had the typical floor layout. The client believed that each resident deserves a unique expression on the outer appearance, but the overall expression is aesthetically united and follows a typical floor layout.

The façade was thoughtfully designed to offer a sense of calm—not only to its residents returning home after a long day, but also to passersby along the street. Cement lattice screens were integrated to ensure privacy, to provide ventilation, and improve thermal comfort, within the master bedroom.
Residential Apartment Design by Architect Harendra

Materiality played a key role in reflecting the tropical context. The use of cut and polished cement finishes, sandy-textured walls at the ground level, and earthy-toned surfaces throughout contribute to a palette that resonates with the surrounding landscape and vegetation.

Rather than seeking to dominate its surroundings, the design aims to blend harmoniously into its environment. The objective was not to create a bold architectural statement, but to establish a quiet presence that responds sensitively to the climate, natural context, and daily rhythms of its occupants—ultimately fostering a sense of harmony and belonging.
