Kapoor Residence

This house for the Kapoors in New Friends Colony designed within a modernist idiom demonstrates the use of exposed concrete and grit wash on the outside. After close to 35 years the house still stands amidst newly constructed 4 story tall tenement-style homes that have replaced most of the single family homes built in the 70s and 80s in south Delhi. The cantilevered balconies that turn the corner built in exposed concrete add a shading element much needed for Delhi's harsh summer.
