In Uttarakhand, the view is generous. The task is to frame it without crowding it.
A mountain residence can be tempted into spectacle. The better instinct is restraint. Wide glass is only useful when the room behind it is calm enough to sit in.
Kings Adobe was shaped around that idea: expansive interiors, a long view, and enough solidity that the weather stays outside. Vacation homes here are not weekends dressed as architecture. They are places to stay.
Silence, in this landscape, is not an absence. It is the material we build with.
