Nestled in the serene landscape of Jia, Himachal Pradesh, Antaraal resort and spa project harmonizes the natural beauty of the surroundings with thoughtfully designed built spaces. At the heart of our design philosophy lies the seamless integration of built and unbuilt mass, offering the user an immersive experience in nature's embrace.


Landscaping plays a pivotal role in creating a serene atmosphere, with indigenous flora carefully incorporated to enhance the senses and provide a tranquil environment. The design celebrates the local biodiversity, fostering a sense of connection to the region's natural heritage. The site is interconnected through cobbled pathways, meticulously laid to meander gently amidst the lush greenery and accentuate the rustic charm of the landscape. These pathways not only guide guests through the resort but also encourage exploration and appreciation of the untouched beauty of the location.

Pre-fabricated timber cottages are strategically positioned to blend seamlessly with the terrain while offering modern comforts. Each cottage is meticulously crafted to complement the surrounding environment, ensuring the users feel immersed in nature without compromising on luxury and comfort.


Preserving the original landscape was paramount in our approach. We meticulously planned the layout to retain natural features, ensuring minimal disruption to the site's topography. This approach allows guests to experience the untouched beauty that drew us to this location in the first place.


The use of natural stone sourced directly from the site itself adds an authentic touch to the architecture. By utilizing materials indigenous to the area, we not only maintain a sustainable approach but also celebrate the local craftsmanship and heritage.


The breathtaking views offered from various vantage points within the resort are a focal point of the design. Whether it's the majestic snow-capped peaks, the serene valley below, or the lush forests that stretch out as far as the eye can see, every vista has been carefully framed to evoke a sense of wonder and awe.
