Text description provided by the architects. The Lattice house is located in a new suburb on the outskirts of Jammu city in north-western India. Its context is symptomatic of the nature of urbanization in many small Indian cities, growing at a pace quicker than that of government/municipal intervention. Where informal settlements and private need based developments begin to shape the rapidly urbanising landscape. And formal planning strategies are mere responses to the new and informal settlements.
