The proposed house for S. Bhagwant Singh exemplifies a contemporary design language that merges clean geometries with an elegant material palette. Dominated by a striking vertical stone-clad volume that frames the central fenestration, the facade balances both mass and openness. The use of large windows not only enhances the visual rhythm but also ensures abundant daylight penetration, aligning with passive design strategies. The interplay between curved and flat roof lines introduces a subtle dynamism, adding to the overall aesthetic richness.
From a functional standpoint, the layout is crafted to accommodate both residential and commercial needs, as indicated by the integrated shutter space on the right — likely intended for a shop or garage. The front elevation makes efficient use of textures and finishes, such as beige plaster, natural stone, and wooden panels, which harmonize well without overwhelming the viewer. Strategic landscaping elements and a low boundary wall with modern gating further enhance the welcoming character of the residence.
