Situated on a steep hill in Anjarle overlooking the ocean, Crest Nine is a community centre designed for a gated villa enclave. The building follows the natural terrain with a curving form and a lowered entrance. Parabolic volumes house amenities like a gym, restaurant, and guest rooms, all opening to ocean-facing decks. Courtyards and landscaped spaces create a dynamic balance of built and open areas. Built with laterite stone and designed for natural ventilation, the project integrates passive cooling and blends seamlessly with its coastal surroundings.
