This 7,000 sqft Noida residence, Ashvattha, integrates human living spaces with local wildlife. Built around a sacred Peepal tree, it balances luxury with deep sustainability.

A complete view of the People Tree House, showing the interplay between the built environment and natural elements like the central water feature and extensive plantings.

This animated walkthrough shows how the five floors of the People Tree House are organized, from the basement work areas to the rooftop terrace, all designed around the central Peepal tree.

A large, curved skylight floods this double-height volume with natural light, while also directing rainwater into a storage tank, showcasing the fusion of aesthetic form and sustainable function.

A curved balcony with floor-to-ceiling glass offers an expansive view, connecting the inhabitants with the sky and the surrounding environment.

The open-plan living area features an integrated kitchen with exposed brick vaults, demonstrating how structural elements become part of the interior aesthetic.

Another perspective of the kitchen and living space, highlighting the unique texture of the brick vault ceiling against the clean lines of the modern kitchen.

This bathroom is a study in color and texture, with a custom red cement bathtub, handmade tiles, and arched wooden shelving, creating a warm, rustic, and luxurious feel.

A staircase with wooden treads and a bright red handrail runs alongside a massive wall of locally sourced random rubble stone, a key material in the project.

The red handrail is a functional sculpture, guiding movement through the space while channeling overflow water from the upper levels to an underground storage tank.

About The People Tree House: A Sanctuary for Harmonious Living

The most functional piece of art in this house is the bright red handrail lining the staircase. It is not just for support, it acts as a pipe system that channels rainwater from the roof down to our underground storage tank, merging sculptural aesthetics with essential water harvesting.
