Ar. Sumit Dhawan's 'Designer's Den' - A Testament to Eco-Friendly Living"

Ar. Sumit Dhawan's design philosophy places sustainability at its core, a fitting contribution to Green Building Week. And, this is well-demonstrated in his personal residence thoughtfully crafted by the adept team at Cityspace' 82 Architects. This home, known as the "Designer's Den," embodies his strong dedication to sustainable urban living and a seamless integration with nature.

The interior design of this home celebrates a natural & sustainable material palette. Italian marble, wood, and carefully chosen wallpapers blend seamlessly, creating an atmosphere of understated sophistication. Veneer-clad walls, in harmony with a monochromatic colour scheme, amplify the sense of unity.

The deliberate positioning of living spaces at both the front and rear of the plot is a strategic choice, intended to welcome natural light and ventilation. The terrace designed with a roof garden and a children's play area, integrates nature into the home. Balconies are adorned with greenery further blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors, creating a seamless living experience. Notably, in the parents' room, an ancient tree stands tall just beyond the window, offering a poignant reminder of our intrinsic connection to the natural world. Further, smart technologies, from energy-efficient lighting fixtures to water-conservative irrigation systems embrace state-of-the-art sustainable solutions.

Ar. Sumit Dhawan's residence stands as an exemplar of sustainable design, a reflection of his belief that architecture should not only serve its inhabitants but also the environment in which it resides.?
