Primarc Studio proudly embraces the opportunity to collaborate with clients such as Mr. Amir Yaqoob, Our work on the SA House gathered Mr. Yaqoob’s satisfaction, leading to his commission for the construction of his second residence in the picturesque neighborhood of Faisal Margalla City (FMC), Rawalpindi.

Unlocking the full potential of a 5-marla short corner plot, it was designed with an ingenious short corner house, strategically flooding the home with natural light. The design maximizes the plot’s unique attributes, featuring a distinctive guest sitting area accessible through a thoughtfully positioned rear door. This innovative approach not only elevates the functionality of the residence but also enhances its overall aesthetic appeal, showcasing our commitment to delivering exceptional and visionary architectural solutions.

The distinctive feature of this home lies in its captivating split-level layout. The inventive of the conventional stairwell guides you gracefully down five feet to the drawing room, followed by an ascent of five feet to the subsequent floor. This spatial arrangement optimally utilizes the available space, resulting in an exciting and unparalleled design. The split-level concept imparts a sense of uniqueness to each floor, housing a total of four bedrooms, with the ground floor hosting the drawing room, parlor, and kitchen.

The contemporary exterior of the residence presented an exciting canvas for creative exploration. Experimentation led us to introduce a fresh brick color. The extended vertical openings along the house’s side serve a purpose beyond mere aesthetics; they were meticulously designed to align with the sun’s trajectory, allowing an influx of natural light throughout the day.

This forward-looking approach not only elevates the visual allure of the home but also contributes to enhanced energy efficiency, resulting in reduced monthly power costs for the occupants. Experience a design strategy that seamlessly merges aesthetic innovation with practical sustainability, redefining the boundaries of modern living.

Every element within the residence, from furnishings to ceilings, corridors, and stairs, was meticulously crafted with precision. A deliberate decision was made to leave the ceiling in its rough state while introducing a faux ceiling, creating an innovative interplay of contrasting textures between rugged forms and clean lines.

Ingeniously designed vertical niches in the lounge and recessed niches in the bathrooms serve a dual purpose, adding visual intrigue to the spaces and providing curated displays for the client’s cherished possessions without compromising valuable floor space. Witness a meticulous approach to interior design that harmonizes form and function, introducing a visual language that elevates the aesthetic appeal of every corner of the home.

The comprehensive design extends seamlessly to the exterior landscaping, where meticulous attention was devoted to ensuring a harmonious integration with the surrounding landscape.
