3S House

3S House

A multigenerational home designed to balance the diverse needs of three generations. It offers a unique 'house within a house' concept, ensuring both shared family spaces and private areas for each sub-family.

 

A house for a multigenerational joint family warrants a cautious and balanced approach because of varied and often contradicting requirements from all family members. Among all programmatic complexities, the design of private spaces for each sub-family unit and common family areas poses a great challenge. 

The strategy of stacking, shifting & sliding is employed to address complex programmatic requirements. Architectural mass/blocks representing different activities are stacked on each other based on age group. These masses then shifted and slid to create open or semi-open spaces which connect them to the main landscaped garden. Common family and living areas are directly connected and extended to a landscape garden which often caters to large gatherings during frequent parties hosted by the family. 

A house within a house brings three generations together under one roof while providing appropriate individual space for each sub-family.
