Modo Designs designed "the Hovering House" in Ahmedabad with an effort to interpret the lifestyle and needs of three generations. The main intent behind the design was to ensure maximum openness through the L-shaped and hovering structure. To further open up the layout, a central court and a semi-open verandah adjoining it allow spatial flow and naturally light up the space.

A part of a gated community in the western suburbs of Ahmedabad, the house is set on a 9000-square-foot site.

The entrance foyer connects to a vestibule that encloses a courtyard. The courtyard view is shared between a formal and an informal living room.

The passage from the dining area further continues towards a bedroom on the southwest. From here stairs lead to the upper floor which houses a studio and two bedrooms.
