Scope and Content

This project series documents a residence for Aditya Prakash in Chandigarh, India in 1981, and later, the addition of a studio to the house around 1992. Located on plot no. 18 on Street B in Sector 8C, the residence was two-storeys in height with a barsati and terrace making up the second floor. The studio addition was also two-storeys, with his architectural offices on the ground level and his painting studio above.[1] The studio's façade was marked with distinctive geometric windows of varying shapes and sizes that were red, blue and yellow in colour.

The project is recorded through original drawings of plans, elevations, sections and perspectives of both the home and studio addition, dating from around 1981-1992.
