Private Residence, DLF Phase 1






The residence is a result of a speculative 10 year plan. Running from a bachelor pad in 2011 for Khurana brothers to a twin family residence in 2020.

The permissible built volume was converted to a low resolution voxel model. Spatial requirements, programmatic arrangements and HUDA by-laws drive the sculpting of the generic 1cuM. Each iteration dissolves 40 voxels. Termination of 20 iterations prepares a 'Restore Point Model' (RPtM) for a built-up area calculation.

A RPtM is further detailed with house design components and materiality for discussions and aesthetic judgments.

The process is continued till it passes most (hopefully all) objective and subjective tests.
