The word "CUBES" is derived from the form of the building itself. Form is the amalgation of four cubes where each cubes holds one particular function. Two cube consists bedroom, one that of living lounge and one holds kitchen-dining space. The architecture of cubes is highly influenced by the work of legend architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. His saying "LESS IS MORE" works for this project.

"CUBES" has a very simple rectangular form. Living, dining and kitchen bounds within one form so that it results into an open, flexible plan and multifunctional spaces. Eastern facade of the building is full of glass to allow morning sunlight within functional spaces. Sliding windows allow us to merge inner spaces with outer spaces (i.e. backyard deck with swimming pool) results into again flexible plan and multi functional spaces. Western and Southern facade has no opening to obstruct harsh sunlight. Western facade has 3-6" entrance within 14-0" high standing wall making an benchmark entrance which hides the surprised eastern opening on the other side. All villas are detached from each other creating an another access to the pool and garden without disturbing inner spaces and also it acts as service entry for the same during functions at villa. Landscape area has trees bearing different kinds of fruits and vegetables. Its compound wall is avoid of masonry. It has bamboo fence with creepers all over so that one ends its vision with greenery from within.

Architecture justify the statement "Form follows function". Project truly reflects the architects principles that the shape of the building should primarily
based upon its intended function or purpose.
