Excerpt: Ramisera Wilds, a hospitality architecture project by Blurring Boundaries, is designed to minimise on-site interference and adhere to eco-friendly principles, responding to an eco-sensitive site. The structure is an A-frame rest house with a modern verandah, a nod to the classic British rest houses. The metal structure is covered with insulated sandwich panels, with glass facades oriented south and north to shield the cottage from direct sunlight.

[Text as submitted by architect] Ramisera Wilds is a boutique resort project in Ramisera, Uttarakhand, in the Kalagarh Tiger Reserve forest area with a focus on the natural beauty and surroundings and an experiential stay to observe wildlife. The designers’ response to such an eco-sensitive site was a structure with minimum on-site interference and eco-friendly principles.

The structure is an A-frame rest house, a modern ode to the traditional British rest houses with a modern verandah. The metal fabricated structure has been welded on site and is covered using insulated prefabricated sandwich panels. The view and direction of the glass facades is towards the south and north of the structure, protecting the cottage from direct sunlight into the room from the western and eastern sun.

The internal space is kept simple with the coloured oxide floor to enhance the spaciousness of the cottage and add an element of vibrant colour to the space. The roof panels are kept exposed internally, highlighting the volume of the space.
