Located in the small town of Nakodar, the Eternal house is situated on a 4700 sq.ft. (444 Sq.m) parcel of land. The house has been designed for a business family who spends ample time at home in the evenings.

After living in different locations in the country, the clients decided to build their permanent residence close to their family relations and native place, Nakodar. They wanted a building that would allow them to age in place. Architect’s design has blended indigenous local crafting techniques with modern space planning in this bespoke design.Other priorities included the vision of bringing back rich Indian heritage back into this modern era, low maintenance costs with user friendly equipment’s and privacy, along with generous vistas of the picturesque green areas left around the dwelling.

The traditional light features throughout the house were an important part of the design process and beauty to the façade. Architect’s eye for small details can be seen in the round pahwas, classical jaali & railing detailing which are important part of traditional Indian Architecture and not seen much around the houses these days.

“One of the challenges in the design was to create something which stands out different in the whole housing estate” said local firm Space Race Architects in a project description.

Client wanted something with natural tones which melds with the natural vegetation designed for green areas of the dwelling. Each space in the house contains a different function. The central volume houses an open plan kind of kitchen, dining area and family sitting. Glass facades offer a strong connection to the scenic courtyard landscape. This aims to create a close relationship between inside-outside bringing fresh air and natural daylight inside the house. These specialist features were created by specialist team in-house at Space Race Architects.

The eternal dwelling houses bedrooms with en-suite, formal sitting areas, family lounge, dining, powder room, study and balconies for site views around.
