Sequeri Wado is a quaint lush green neighborhood in the heart of bustling Candolim,
a five minute walk away from the beach. A small quiet side lane leads to the
property which is marked by a thoroughly renovated Goan Christian Chapel. |
 |
The ensemble is set around a beautiful Banyan tree that has inhabited the centre
of the plot for a hundred years or more… Three buildings are wrapped in a C- shape
around its garden. Two of the structures are connected by a large arch and a tower.
They represent the access to the ensemble while being in an architectural dialogue
with the heritage structure of the chapel.

The language of the architecture follows the characteristic Goan – Portuguese tradition
in the truest sense. A fine balance of moldings, openings and wall surfaces
as well as typical Goan verandahs structure the elevations and create a traditional
appearance. |
