LAYOUT OF A TYPICAL
HOUSE IN CHANDIGARH AND
HOUSE OF GARDENS
A HAVELI IN PUNJAB Chandigarh is a city of gardens with vari-
ous gardens such as Rose Garden, Rock
Garden, etc.Main concept of the house
is to create a feel of being outside even
while being inside.
There are 7 gardens in this house :
1) Front Lawn
2) Yen Garden

+ 3) Kitchen Garden
4)Cactii Garden
5) Potted Garden
6)Play Spaces for Kids

7) Roof Garden
FIRST FLOOR PLAN
CENTRAL COURTYARD
Central courtyard has always been the
essence of any vernacular house in the
region. But Chandigarh has always fol-
lowed different layout. Thus I have inter-
mixed th e two and come to a result that
there is a central space but not a court-
yard. Central space is a yen garden but
according to the Indian traditions, there is
a tulsi plant at the focus.
The final layout of the house is an amal-
gamtion of vernacular house type i,e Hav-
elis in Punjab and a typical house in Chan-
digarh.
