Embracing Nature Through Architectural Layers
Nestled in Bhairahawa, Nepal, Verdant Villa stands as a testament to contemporary design harmoniously intertwined with nature. Spanning 11,000 square feet on a 26,050-square-foot plot, this residence embodies a modern interpretation of traditional courtyards, utilizing green belts to create a dynamic interplay between built forms and natural elements.
“Our vision was to craft a home that evolves with its environment, where architecture and nature coalesce seamlessly,” explains Priyanka Khanna, Principal Architect at 42MM Architecture.

A Modern Interlock of Greens and Grays
The villa’s design is characterized by its layered planning, where green buffers delineate public, semi-public, and private zones. This approach not only enhances privacy but also fosters a sense of openness and connection to the surrounding landscape.
“We envisioned the house as a series of volumes intersecting with green spaces, creating a rhythm that guides movement and experience,” notes Rudraksh Charan, Co-Founder of 42MM Architecture.
Materials such as steel, glass, and concrete are employed to craft a minimalist aesthetic, while exposed concrete, untreated wood, and stone add warmth and texture. The use of semi-permeable surfaces allows for a play of light and shadow, enhancing the villa’s dynamic character.

Spatial Harmony and Sustainable Design
Oriented along the east-west axis, Verdant Villa maximizes natural light while mitigating heat gain through its green buffers. The drawing room and lounge feature expansive glass walls that open to the front lawn, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces. A glass-roofed staircase and mandir invite sunlight, creating a serene ambiance throughout the home.
“Sustainability was integral to our design, from the orientation to the materials chosen, ensuring the home remains comfortable and connected to its environment,” shares Khanna.
The double-height living room serves as the heart of the home, connecting various spaces and offering views of the lush surroundings. Each bedroom is thoughtfully designed, with the master suite featuring textures of wood and stone, and the children’s rooms reflecting their personalities through rustic elements and curated art.
