Wander Ghar

01Wander Ghar

A home, lit for Tihar

Scroll down the lane to the gate, through the garden and up to the rooftop — from bright day into a night lit for Tihar.

02The gate

A narrow steel gate between two brick piers, under a maroon arch hung with marigolds, opens from the stone-paved lane into the garden.

03The garden

Inside the walls: stepping stones and a row of diyas, a tulsi shrine, a bench by the wall, lantern posts, marigolds and banana plants at the back.

04The balcony

Tucked into the notch of the facade, the first-floor balcony looks east over the garden, under a white soffit and its lamp.

05The rooftop

Rails and brick parapets, potted plants, the water tank and the stair room with its corrugated roof.

06The night view

After dark the parapets are wrapped in Tihar lights: warm runs along the rails, coloured strands falling over the soffits.

07Goodnight

Thanks for walking through. A Wander Pixels home.
