We dissolved the boundaries between architecture and nature in this Chandigarh restaurant, crafting Scandinavian-inspired pods that breathe amidst the foliage.

An article feature showcasing the matte black pods emerging from the wild garden. The design is a conscious adaptation, creating a sanctuary that respects and enhances its natural surroundings.

A triangular dining pod, its sharp, modern geometry a deliberate contrast to the organic forms of the surrounding foliage. The interior is lined with warm wood, creating a cozy refuge.

A magazine spread detailing the project's philosophy. The design minimizes landscape impact, allowing the placement of structures to be dictated by the existing trees and topography.

About Tubu: Architecture in a Garden

We didn't just place structures in a garden, we mapped the existing topography and trees first. By recycling wood from the old structure into these black, angular pods, we created a space that adapts to nature rather than imposing itself upon it.
