Virat Kohli’s (.kohli) holiday home in Alibag is the embodiment of biophilic luxury.
An unfiltered conversation with Virat Kohli (.kohli) suddenly changes the mood of the crew [sooner than he realises] when he says, “I’m never really on holiday…there’s no plan for how to relax…just being in a state of doing nothing is enough”. It delivers a resounding reassurance that Virat too, like a lot of his fans, wants to be in the comforts of his abode after a challenging season and desires an exit from Mumbai, where he can rejuvenate and immerse in nature. And he found this home away from home, as he deems it, in Alibag.
Virat was looking for a space with a soul, with a sense of belonging and community—a home that is a testament to his own taste—so Avās () in Alibag delivered. Built over a 10,000-square-foot plot by globally acclaimed architects at SAOTA (), led by Phillippe Fouché (), the Californian Konkan-style four-bedroom villa celebrates “raw luxury’’.
What really stands out in the home is its integration of biophilic principles. Bathed in the glow of natural light streaming through expansive windows and glass walls, it commits to sophistication and sustainability, qualities that resonated with Virat’s idea of a holiday home. He says, “The most interesting feature is the double-height cut-out ceiling in the living space, as it welcomes natural light. The more light… the better its energy.”
