This 1,000 sq. ft. Compact Home in Raipur Has Multiple Terraces! (House Tour)

Built on a compact 20x50 plot in Raipur, Chabutra transforms spatial constraints into a layered experience of light, openness, and connection. The 2,000 sq.ft. home uses subtraction, cascading terraces, skylights, and jaali walls to create airy interiors within a dense urban fabric.

Traditional living patterns inspire the planning, from verandah-like thresholds and floor-seating-style dining to jaalis that encourage natural ventilation. Every level frames a different relationship with the sky, while green buffers soften the connection to the street. More than a compact residence, this home becomes an evolving spatial journey shaped by light, movement, and everyday rituals.
