Key Features of the Renovation:
- Vertical Expansion:
- One of the primary objectives of the renovation was to increase the usable space within the residence. To achieve this, two additional floors were added to the existing structure, effectively tripling the available floor area. This vertical expansion maximizes the utilization of the limited land area while accommodating the individual living spaces for each of the three Yadav brothers.
- Independent Floor Design:
- Each of the three brothers is provided with an independent floor, ensuring privacy and autonomy within the residence. This design approach allows for personalized living spaces tailored to the specific needs and preferences of each occupant, fostering a sense of individuality and comfort.
- Balcony Extensions:
- With the renovation, the residence’s outdoor spaces are enhanced through the extension of balconies on each floor. These expanded balconies offer panoramic views of the surroundings, provide additional living space for relaxation and entertainment, and promote indoor-outdoor connectivity, enhancing the overall living experience.
- Contemporary Facade Design:
- A key aspect of the renovation is the creation of a new contemporary facade, transforming the exterior appearance of the residence. The facade features sleek lines, modern finishes, and vertical fins, lending a sense of sophistication and visual interest to the building’s exterior. This updated facade reflects the brothers’ modern lifestyle and design preferences while revitalizing the neighborhood streetscape.
- Integration of Modern Amenities:
- Alongside the aesthetic enhancements, the renovation incorporates modern amenities and features to enhance comfort and convenience. This may include updated electrical and plumbing systems, energy-efficient fixtures, smart home technologies, and other contemporary conveniences tailored to the needs of the occupants.
- Functional Space Planning:
- Front Desk Architects adopts a strategic approach to space planning, ensuring efficient utilization of interior space while maintaining a sense of openness and flow. Each floor is carefully laid out to optimize functionality, circulation, and natural light penetration, creating bright, airy, and inviting living spaces.
- Preservation of Existing Structure:
- While undergoing significant renovation, efforts are made to preserve the integrity of the existing structure wherever possible. This may involve strengthening structural elements, repairing damaged areas, and repurposing existing materials to minimize waste and environmental impact.
The renovation of the Yadav Brothers Residence at Shastri Nagar, spearheaded by Front Desk Architects, revitalizes an existing structure to create a modern, functional, and aesthetically pleasing living environment for its occupants. Through thoughtful design interventions, the residence is transformed into a contemporary urban oasis that reflects the lifestyle and aspirations of its inhabitants while contributing to the architectural fabric of the neighborhood.
