Transformation House / Studio Juggernaut

Miwa Negoro — Sun, 26 Oct 2025 21:00:00 +0000

Our urban landscapes are undergoing a rapid transformation, pressured by burgeoning populations and increasing demands on city infrastructure. To address these escalating challenges, urban planners continually revise zoning regulations. In Delhi, for instance, a significant regulatory change introduced mandatory stilt parking on small urban lots with four habitable floors above. Gurugram, a satellite city, subsequently adopted similar amendments. A key distinction, however, lies in the underlying demand: Delhi's housing demand is genuine, whereas Gurugram's is largely speculative, evidenced by numerous vacant lots across its neighborhoods.

LAIR Restaurant Bar / RENESA Architecture Design Interiors Studio

Miwa Negoro — Sat, 14 Jun 2025 17:00:00 +0000

A Reinterpretation of the Speakeasy Through Materiality and Spatial Choreography – Renesa Architecture Design Interiors Studio presents Lair, an immersive hospitality experience that redefines the traditional idea of the speakeasy through a contemporary lens. Designed as an architectural journey of concealment and revelation, the Lair fuses raw materiality, layered spatial transitions, and oriental undertones to create a sanctuary of curated indulgence. Located in the heart of Gurgaon, the Lair plays with the ideas of secrecy and intimacy. It is not just a bar—it is a meticulously constructed narrative that slowly unveils itself through light, shadow, and form. The design choreographs a movement from openness to enigma, from bustling social zones to hidden private corners.

Chromatic House / Anagram Architects

Hana Abdel — Sun, 08 Jan 2023 21:00:00 +0000

Chromatic House’s child-like playfulness derives directly from the client’s mandate. A young nuclear family of five, they desired a city home for the children to grow up playing together in actively participative care of their parents. So the design arranges the home and the lawn in an oblique, but equal, figure-ground and departs from the urban box form by referencing a more rural pitched roof form with a long verandah. The bedrooms on the first-floor spill onto a large tapered A-frame volume which accommodates a mezzanine lounge and the living, dining, and kitchen in an open plan. This volume opens up to the lawn and vegetable garden through a long verandah shaded by a pergola, while the study in the attic whimsically connects with it through a slide tucked under the stairs.

599 Music School / Studio Organon

Bianca Valentina Roșescu — Thu, 26 May 2022 12:00:00 +0000

This is a greenfield project to house a music school on a suburban plot of land. The institutional feel is inspired by the Brutalist form. The project is contextualized by the view of a surrounding green belt that defines the relationship between the indoors and outdoors. Natural light is used as a material which flows through the space, which gives the interior a softness, that juxtaposes with the hardness of the brick and concrete exterior.

House of Courts / DADA Partners

Hana Abdel — Mon, 24 May 2021 18:00:00 +0000

This 500 Sq.m Urban plot is programmed as a sustainable live-work unit with the lower two levels as the studio space and the upper two as their family residence. The most fundamental ambition that generated this live-work typology was to pull the Sky into the lower work floors and to push the Earth upwards to the upper levels of habitation.

St. Andrews Girls Hostel / Zero Energy Design Lab

Hana Abdel — Sun, 24 Jan 2021 19:00:00 +0000

The Girls’ Hostel Block at the St. Andrews Institute of Technology and Management in Gurugram explores the intersection of education and sustainability through the lens of the vernacular. Completed in 2020, the design for the 25,000 sq.ft. Girls’ Hostel takes cues from the adjacent Boys’ Hostel Block and is articulated in brick and fair-faced concrete, with exposed structural members abutting the structure along all sides. The hostel's design empowers students with freedom of movement within an environment that prioritizes thermal comfort and functionality to become an exemplar of zero energy design.

House with 49 Trees / RENESA Architecture Design Interiors Studio

Hana Abdel — Sun, 18 Oct 2020 19:00:00 +0000

The essential meaning of the project comes from a desire to empathize that there is no modernity without a good tradition. The studio’s approach was to create an imagery where architecture takes root in a site, and the site makes the architecture real. The house evolving from around the trees itself, places the built as no longer an independent object, but a medium to connect rough concrete and sandstone with soft trees, engaging a space capable of reacquainting the resident with an elusive intensity of feeling.

Lopez Design Office / DADA & Partners

Paula Pintos — Wed, 01 Jan 2020 01:00:00 +0000

Together at 12th Bar / Renesa Architecture Design Interiors Studio

Daniel Tapia — Mon, 29 Jul 2019 19:00:00 +0000

Together is a feeling, Together is more than just a word, Together one can make the world more interesting and evolve. The latest collaboration of Studio RENESA brings forward a collaborative approach of space, team, scale, culinary and bar experience to connect to the true meaning of "togetherness". In search of a meaningful integration of shape, color, texture, and design, the entire space integrates the different planes and volumes of the site at the 12th floor of Le Meridien, Gurgaon. The ideology of the space initiates from the amalgamation of a young talented chef (Vanshika Bhatia) with an experienced bar mixologist (Nitin Tewari) to form three basic parts - kitchen, bar, and a seating space.

SIS PREP Gurugram / PAL Design + Urbanscape Architects

Collin Chen — Sun, 20 Jan 2019 23:00:00 +0000

The generous abundance of natural light and a close resemblance to outdoor nature are close to the heart of this three-storey preschool space for children aged from 1.5 to 4.5.

Office for Communique / groupDCA

Pilar Caballero — Tue, 02 Oct 2018 20:00:00 +0000

The Communique Marketing Solutions Office, Gurugram, India, creates a modern and egalitarian workspace in an effort to foster creativity, collaboration, and conversation. Its spatial planning emerges as a direct result of this intent: where, an open-plan office format is chosen that is symbolic of transparency. The office is housed in a three-storeyed building that crafts a distinctive identity for itself within its immediate urban context. The architectural vocabulary is unmistakably brutalist: the facades are an expanse of exposed concrete punctuated by the measured use of corten steel.

William Grant & Sons Ideation Space / Design Plus

Daniel Tapia — Fri, 28 Sep 2018 19:00:00 +0000

Being part of the growth endeavor of a brand such as William Grant & Sons was an exciting prospect for Design Plus Architects. The brief was in-sync with their company’s values of pride, responsibility, professionalism, entrepreneurship, and sustainability. These values were not necessarily imbibed as metaphors but were also prevalent in an objective requirement - of several small meeting rooms, semi-formal discussion zones, well-lit interiors, a possible gathering of 70+ people for a town hall, proverbial open office; essentially a lively and happy working environment.

Boys Hostel Block / Zero Energy Design Lab

Rayen Sagredo — Fri, 17 Aug 2018 00:00:00 +0000

The boys’ hostel was proposed as a linear built mass in the existing master plan of the campus, which posed challenges to create socially active and environmentally sustainable spaces.

Sabrina Leiva — Fri, 13 Jan 2017 20:00:00 +0000

True to its design philosophy of minimal intervention and maximum up-cycling, the anti-design theme runs right through the new Cyber Hub Social’s decor. With an area of 5000 square feet, it makes an unexcelled impact, adapting a low cost housing model in a fun urban café.
