In the outskirts of Gwalior, Dabra bypass, Madhya Pradesh, is
a pioneering built structure of resort that is a study in design.
“The relationship between built form, folks and public
spaces never stops growing,” says Kripal Singh Bhadouria
as we discussed his first project as a team Studio Chaukhat
of Imperial Golf Resort. When it comes to hospitality, you
have to think of something different apart from what you
do in your daily life. Keeping this the main concern for the
design, the team started with a small scale of 4-5 cottages
at the beginning, which eventually became the large-scale
project of 38 cottages in total. Efforts have been made by the
site’s vendors, labourers and engineers. Most importantly,
the client, Mr. Wadhva and Mr. Anshuman were always open
to new experiments and Studio Aagaur for their valuable
collaborations in the project.
