Project Description
Project description provided by Studio Deatil: Studio Detail Architects have crafted a peaceful mountain retreat in the scenic Nilgiri Hills, offering expansive views of the surrounding landscape.
Perched at an altitude of 2,240 meters (7,350 feet) above sea level, MindEscapes unfolds/emerges as an exclusive club resort catering to professionals like directors, actors, singers, and scriptwriters and many more from all corners of India. Providing a serene retreat to both, relax and work on their defined projects, the resort offers sweeping panoramic views of the ever-changing seasons in the surrounding landscape. Beyond its captivating architecture, this project is designed with a range of amenities ensuring a stay that is both comfortable and productive for its visitors.
The client possessed an ageing building, which the Studio Detail Architects reimagined with contemporary, minimal design interiors and landscapes. This approach not only revitalized the old facade but also addressed less appealing walls by cladding them with locally sourced grey stone. The design of the project is intricately shaped by the surrounding topography, lush vegetation, and majestic mountain views. Set against the natural terrain, the location transforms with each evolving season, offering a captivating backdrop. The presence of diverse wildlife, including bison, leopards, and Indian wild dogs, adds an exhilarating touch to the overall experience.
