Proposed Residence for S. Jarnail Singh Uppal
The proposed residence for S. Jarnail Singh Uppal showcases a commanding blend of contemporary elegance and functional design. The architectural composition emphasizes bold geometric volumes, highlighted by sweeping curved roofs and extended overhangs that offer both visual interest and climatic protection. Large vertical glazing on the front façade introduces a sense of transparency and verticality, allowing abundant natural light to penetrate the interior spaces while maintaining a grand, modern presence.
The interplay of materials—such as neutral-toned stucco, stone cladding, and wood-textured elements—creates a harmonious balance of texture and warmth. The curved balcony projections and layered rooflines add a sculptural dynamic to the structure, making it visually engaging from multiple vantage points. The strategic use of horizontal lines in railing designs and facade bands further enhances the sense of openness, complementing the vertical glass panels that anchor the building.
