XUNAN was born as a contemporary tribute to the ancient Mayan pyramids, reinterpreted through a minimalist and brutalist lens that harmonizes with the jungle. Its name — which means “noble lady” in the Mayan language — symbolizes the bond between the sacred, the natural, and the intimate.

The “Toudali Villa” project is situated on a site with unique spatial constraints. The land lacks direct and full access to the main street and has a narrow frontage of only 5 meters—a decisive limitation that significantly shaped the project’s spatial and formal strategies.

In the heart of Safavi Villa, a delightful contrast unfolds between the solidity of modern Brutalism and the unparalleled elegance of Safavid Iranian architecture. This is not merely a structure, but an embodiment of the daring fusion of two eras; a place where the decisive lines of exposed concrete.

A modern masterpiece carved where land meets sea. This villa on the shore of the Persian Gulf isn’t just a home—it’s a dream etched in green marble and kissed by coastal light. Crafted from single-piece green marble stones, the structure is both monolithic and organic.

Rajasthan is synonymous with stone as building material but sadly over the last few decades this material has been reduced to a 'cladding 'medium and its potential as a robust and sustainable structural element has not been exploited.

Local methods of dry stone construction. A minimal amount of steel such as tie-rods and shear pins reinforce the stone for seismic performance. Lime mortar is used only to seal the exterior joints
Construction
At our request, the quarry foreman reverted to the “ splitting” stone technique using traditional stonemasonry tools instead of the high-yield gangsaw extraction that is machine intensive and eliminates the natural stone grain. Splitting the stone mobilizes the human touch, limits the processing, and retains the natural Earth imprint of the stone
Material
Hard sandstone ( Jodhpur stone) is quarried 45 mins away from the site
