Kalrav Villa: A Luxurious Blend of Traditional and Contemporary Design



Unveiling the Kalrav Villa, an architectural gem nestled in the heart of Ahmedabad, India. Designed in 2022 by VPA Architects, this luxury house harmonizes tradition with a contemporary aesthetic. Encased within a thicket of mature trees, its minimal footprint pays tribute to its surrounding nature. The eastern facing façade, shaped like a ‘flying bird’, sets the tone for a house that embraces the beauty of the outdoors in every aspect of its design.

About Kalrav Villa
The Man-Nest: Kalrav House’s Immersive Design
