Panjab House, located on a prime site in Ludhiana, belies the density of the surrounding area. Slightly elevated above neighbours, the compound imparts the feeling of privacy, and the structural orientation and strategic window placement take in broad views of the market.
Refreshingly Refined

The house, reminiscent of a homesteader's settlement, is inspired by luxurious living with a minimalist touch. The proper proportions, material consistency, and meticulous craftsmanship in Panjab House were all deliberately considered to enhance privacy, serenity and a profound connection to the outdoors.

The primary concern was to ensure a structure protected from the harsh sunlight and heat. This became entwined with the desire to create an abode that reveled in the sense of space a home that brought the family together but left enough room for the individual personalities to thrive and bloom. This meant the architects had to ensure places of congregation and places of solitude in the spatial narrative. Additionally, the designers endeavoured to pair enclosed volumes with open areas to amplify this sense of freedom and luxury.

The construction from scratch prioritized the maximum use of space, focusing on exuberant natural lighting, spaciousness, integration of rooms, comfort and high quality in all aspects of the residence, and exclusivity in its execution. The residence was made for a large family that likes to receive friends and family for gatherings and celebrations. A house that holds the maximum number of guests in a sanctuary of natural landscapes refers to tranquility and warmness.
