Building a Home is a one-time thing for most of the public. Every client brings a site with its own set of limitations. This one was quite a narrow site with a building on the North blocking the essential natural light.
Hence a bisecting garden was introduced to bring in natural light and ventilation. This in turn reduced the built-up area and proved to be a cost-cutting solution as well.
To favour the prospect of visual harmony, furniture were customised to the extent of sizes and selection of fabrics. Budget restrained us from making it perfect but the house turned out beautiful as it is.

While we had carefully planned the artificial lighting to make it space-defining, the effect of shadows came out as a pleasant surprise.

In this cost-effective and a compact residential project, we had to opt for a Cantilever staircase in order to make the narrow corridor appear wider. We didn’t have sufficient funds to follow the conventional cantilever staircase detail.
Hence, I designed this staircase in attempts to lower the material and labor costs without compromising the structural quality. MS Plate, C-Channels, L-Channels, Steel bars, and lots of welded joints hold the framework together. Concrete and Plywood are used as supporting materials. Vinyl planks, SS Hollow Bars, and Enamel make the finishes.
The cost was reduced by half in comparison with the market price of a conventional cantilever staircase executed by the contractors.
