Proposed Residence for S. Kewal Singh Dhaliwal
From an architectural standpoint, the proposed residence for S. Kewal Singh Dhaliwal showcases a contemporary design language that blends clean geometry with bold massing. The structure is distinguished by its prominent linear forms and the interplay of solids and voids, offering a visually balanced elevation. The curved parapet on the terrace adds a signature modern element, drawing attention while subtly breaking the rigid orthogonal geometry of the building. The material palette—neutral tones, smooth finishes, and wood-textured accents—enhances the sophistication of the design.
The double-height porch with cylindrical columns provides a sense of grandeur and openness, establishing a welcoming focal point. Large windows and multiple balconies promote natural ventilation and light, crucial for sustainable living in the region’s climate. The spatial hierarchy is evident in the layering of levels and terraces, accommodating both private and semi-private spaces efficiently. The overall layout emphasizes horizontal continuity while maintaining vertical elegance, making the house both functional and aesthetically commanding.
