The Story: What the Family Needed
A young tech entrepreneur and an architect couple wanted their top-floor residence to feel like a serene Copenhagen loft while standing up to the harsh Kolkata sun and monsoons.
Project Scope: Double-height living volume, floating microcement staircase, bespoke Nordic oak cabinetry, terrace glass pavilion.
3 Major Problems & How We Solved Them
Intense Heat Gain in Double-Height Ceiling
Top-floor exposed slab reached 42°C during summer, causing AC units to run continuously without cooling the lower living zone.
Engineered a dual-layer false ceiling with high-density polyurethane thermal insulation boards and multi-directional airflow dampers.
Awkward Concrete Staircase
The builder-provided staircase was chunky, blocky, and completely blocked views of the terrace.
Re-engineered as a floating cantilevered steel spine with solid white ash treads and ultra-clear tempered glass railings.
What We Did: Step-by-Step Execution
- Laid seamless microcement resin flooring throughout the open-plan social floor.
- Custom-fabricated Nordic minimalist media monolith with concealed wire routing and subwoofer cavity.
- Installed a weatherproof covered glass conservatory on the terrace with automated drop-down louvers.
- Comprehensive 10-year anti-cracking and anti-seepage warranty across all wet zones.

Materials Used (Why They Last in Kolkata)
Key Project Takeaways
- AC electricity consumption dropped by 34% due to top-slab thermal insulation.
- Living area felt double in volume with unobstructed sightlines through the floating staircase.
- Executed in 65 working days without single day delay.
