THE URBAN HOUSE , 9300 SQFT, PATHANKOT

The client aspired to build a house that would be more than just a place to live in it should be a statement in itself . While keeping his aspirations in mind, the architecture narrative was built by shaping the voids both internally and externally, rather than starting with a form or geometry in mind.The entrance lobby if flanked by a double height minimal courtyard on one side and a view of the lawn on the other side. The House was designed from inside out, scooping out volumes intermittently, thereby creating double height space on the entrance. Aligned to the client’s brief, landscaped pockets were planned in and around these spaces to keep them open, connected and in sync with nature. Spatial planning of the house was primarily dictated by Vastu (ancient Indian science of orientation and spatial planning in Architecture).Vastu mandated for an entry to the house from the NE (3rd quadrant of the plot) part of the house. This prompted us to leave a good 10’ wide space at the ground floor which was landscaped with a strip of tropical plants all along the eastern side. As we move towards the entrance of the house. We move along a water body that helps in imbibing positivity in its inhabitants.
