Proposed Residence for S. Gian Singh & S. Surjit Singh
This proposed residence reflects a harmonious balance between traditional design sensibilities and modern structural expression. The façade is defined by its symmetrical arrangement, central grand entry, and a series of double-height columns that establish a sense of formality and grandeur. The upper-floor balconies wrap around the front elevation, not only adding depth to the design but also providing shaded sit-outs that are highly functional in the local climate. The green-tiled sloped roof with subtle overhangs adds a regional character while enhancing rainwater runoff efficiency.
The extensive use of glass in windows and doors maximizes natural light, creating bright and airy interior spaces. French windows with wooden frames introduce warmth to the overall color palette, while carefully detailed parapets and balcony railings add to the architectural rhythm. The landscape elements—including a well-framed entrance, low boundary wall, and ornamental shrubbery—contribute to an inviting street presence. The driveway’s paving choice blends seamlessly with the overall elevation, enhancing both visual and functional aspects.
