Ethiraj Lane

How can we promote community living for families residing in an apartment?

If building types can become guiding strategies, the typology ‘palace’ can best represent our approach for ‘Ethiraj Lane’ at Egmore. Residents of each apartment at ‘Ethiraj Lane’ can experience a shared sense of identity within the community. The design challenges conventional notions of privacy and explores themes of collective identity across the 10,000 sqft floor plate through various private, semi-private, and shared open spaces.

The integrated contemporary design embodies a collective of residences with a strong group identity.
