Type-II Residential Housing, Agra

This Type-II residential complex in Agra is designed for police personnel, comprising 96 units across two mid-rise buildings. The design emphasizes simplicity, climate responsiveness, and material honesty. Exposed brick and muted plaster create a warm, durable facade, while articulated stair cores with arched openings introduce rhythm and depth. Balconies and recessed windows provide shade, privacy, and natural ventilation suited to the local climate. The planning ensures efficient circulation and shared green spaces, fostering a sense of community. The project avoids excess, instead relying on proportion, light, and texture to create a practical, grounded, and quietly expressive housing environment.
