What is Residential Design
Residential Design is the design of the interior of private residence. As
this type design is very specific for individual situations, the need and
wants of the individual and paramount in this areas of interior design.

Residential DesignInterior Design

What is Interior Design
Interior Design Is About So Much More Than ‘What Looks Right’. It Is About Taking A
Holistic View Of The Way That Individuals Use And Enjoy The Spaces That They Inhabit. It
Is About Finding And Creating A Cohesive Answer To A Set Of Problems And Dressing .

What is Residential Interior Design
Residential design is an technical work because is implement the working efficiency of
the person living inside the house. As flow of money increase in market, and to maintain
their status in society people need well designed interior, because residence is a place
which denotes the personality of the person living inside the house.

Case Study
We have to do a space planning for Mr. Mukesh who is a bank manager in State bank
of India. He has a family of two children one boy age 16 and a girl age 12, and a wife
who loves watching TV and Gardening.
We have to device an open plan on a pot size of 50ft x 60ft.

Building is a structure having various components like foundation, wall,
columns, floors, roofs, doors, and various types of surface finishes made
according to NBC (National Building Code of India)
Site Consideration
Location of India :
Location of India in the world is
Northeast direction.
Longitude – 68o E – 98o E
Latitude – 8o NE – 37o NE

Map of Rajasthan
Location of India :
 Location of India in the world is
Northeast direction.
 Longitude – 68o E – 98o E
 Latitude – 8o NE – 37o NE
The India has a tropical monsoon
climate, since the greater larger part of
the country lies within the tropics.

Major Landmarks
 Distance from the Major Landmarks –
 Shopping center (1.2Km)
 Hospital (350m)
 Bus stand (1Km)
 Railway station (2.5Km)
 Dimension of site (50’x60’)

Before considering any plan we first study about the orientation of the plot, by using
compass we identify North, East, South, and West direction. And with the help of
orientation we decide the face of house.
The orientation of the site given is north south direction. The north direction doesn’t
have heat rays of sun it only has sun’s light. That is why the north direction has comes
in shaded zone.

Climatology
Climatology is the branch which deals with the
climate and changes throughout the year of the
weather.
 Macro Climate of India :
Location of India in the world is Northeast
Direction.
Longitude – 68o E – 98o E
Latitude – 8o NE – 37o NE
The whole India has a tropical monsoon climate,
since the greater part of the country lies within
the tropics.
Climate can be sub-divided into two major
divisions :
1.Macro Climate
2.Micro Climate

Macro Climate
Macro climate are characterized by quantitative indexes. That refers to the entire
area being considered I.E. Intervals with which particular climatic characteristics
change throughout the area or their average value for the entire area. The macro
climate is contrasted with local climate and macro climate.

Micro Climate
The micro climate around the building, taking advantage of existing topographical,
adjacent building and vegetation for solar protection. Good site layout can also take
grate advantage of local breezes by the formation of air funnels and also add natural
ventilation by staggering the building layout.

Layout of Site
The Building Bye-laws followed by giving set backs. And landscaping given in the plot.

Bioclimatic Design
Bioclimatic design has developed out a sensitivity to ecological and regional contexts
and the need to conserve energy and environmental resources. Bioclimatic
approaches to architecture offer a way to design for a long term and sustainable use
of environmental and material resources.
Natural ventilation can provide comfort in all seasons, especially in summer
when it can reduce or eliminate the need for air conditioning in some climates

Bioclimatic Design Strategies
(1) In Rajasthan southern sun shines brightly and straight roof transfer heat
immediately so while planning any space we need to design slanted roof towards the
southern direction which will tends to leaser heating of the roof and the heat
transfer time will be decrease.
(2) Use Deciduous trees in southern direction to decrease the speed
of air comes inside the house.

Bioclimatic Design Strategies
(3) Water bodies should be taken up in south direction because air carry’s moisture
with them which will help to decrease the temperature inside the house.
.
(4) Water bodies should be taken up in south direction because air
carry’s moisture with them which will help to decrease the
temperature inside the house.

Green Building
Green building and sustainable design are used interchangeably to describe any
building design in an environmentally sensitive manner. . This system was developed
by Unites State Green Building Council (USGBC).
.

Orientation
Before considering any plan we first study about the orientation of the plot, by
using compass we identify North, East, south and west direction. And with
orientation we decide the face of house.
North
South
East West

Day lighting
. Day lighting refers to the use of natural light, be it brilliant sunlight or muted
overcast light. Day lighting has been touted for its many aesthetics and health
benefits by designers and researchers alike.

• Other Important Points :
(1) Use vertical windows for proper sunlight.
(2) Use Clerestory and skylight windows for sunlight of intense sun.

Green building
Overhang Design

OVERHANG
Overhangs can be very useful for intense sun and rain control. They also reduce the
glare of daylight. As an interior designer we pay attention to overhangs. . A house
with improper overhangs can overheat in the summer, can suffer from water entry
problems at windows and doors, and can have premature siding rot.
Types of Overhang –
• Roof overhang - Roof overhang protect siding, doors, and windows from rot and
water entry. The most important function of wide roof overhang is to help keep
water off doors and windows

(2) Window overhang –
 Light Shelves – windows receive a large amount of energy from the sun. Light
shelve is an horizontal plane placed below the top of a window, usually just above
door height allow light to reflected from its upper surface to the ceiling height.

Window
It is an opening in the wall of a building , for the admission of light and air . Such an
opening with the frame , sashes, and panels of glass or any other device by which it
is closed.
The selection of size, shape, location and number of windows to be provided in a
room depends upon the following considerations:
1.Size of room to be lighted
2.Location of the room and its utility
3.Direction of wind and its speed
4.Climatic conditions of the site such as humidity, temperature variation etc.
 Design of Windows-
1.The size and number of windows should be sufficient to provide adequate light and
ventilation in the room.
2.Windows should be located opposite to each other wherever possible
3.The window sill should be placed at 75 to 100cm above the floor level.
4.Buildings in humid region need special attention for adequate ventilation of the
room.

 Window Placement for Day lighting -
(1) Centered Window –
(2) Turning a corner –

(3) Skylight –
(4) Horizontal –

(5) Off center –
(6) Window Wall –

(7) Vertical –
 Classification of Windows -
1. Fixed Window

2. Pivoted Window
3. Double Hung Window

4. Sliding Window
5. Casement Window

6. Sash and Glazed
7. Louvered Window

10. Clerestory Window
11. Corner Window

12. Dormer and Gable Window
13. Skylights and Fanlights

TOPOGRAPHY
 Topography refers to the configuration surface features of a plot of land, which
influences where and how to build and develop a site. The microclimate of a site is
influenced by the ground elevation, the nature and orientation of landforms, and the
presence of bodies of water

LANDSCAPING
Landscaping design is the art of arranging of modifying the features of a landscape,
an urban area, etc. for aesthetics or practical purposes.
Landscape Design :
• Landscape design creates practical and pleasing outdoor living space.
• Landscape design develops a series of outdoor room.
• landscape design brings the family’s wants, needs, and values into the design.

LANDSCAPING

Staircase
A stair may be defined as the series of steps suitably arranged for the purpose of
connecting different floors of A building. It is an arrangement of treads, risers,
stringers, newel posts, handrails and baluster, so designed and constructed as to
provide an easy and quick access to the different floors, rendering comfort and safety
to the users.
 Classification of Stairs –
1. Straight Stairs – The most obvious use of the straight stair is to form an access to
entrance, porch or portico. Straight stair cannot be avoided in places.

2. Dog-legged stairs – It consists of two straight flights of steps with
abrupt turn between them.
3. Open-newel Stair – It consists of two or more straight flights

4. Geometrical Stair – Well between the open-newel stair with the difference
that the open onward and the backward flights is curved.
5. Circular Stair – Circular stair is commonly provided at the backside of a building
for rendering to its various floors for service purpose.

Wall Planes
A stair may be defined as the series of steps suitably arranged for the purpose of
connecting different floors of A building. It is an arrangement of treads, risers,
stringers, newel posts, handrails and baluster, so designed and constructed as to
provide an easy and quick access to the different floors, rendering comfort and safety
to the users.

1. Parallel and vertical planes: A pair of parallel vertical planes defines a field of
space between them. The open end of field, established by the vertical
edges
2. L-shaped planes:.
3. U- shaped planes: A U-shape configuration of vertical planes defines a field
of space that has an inward as well as outward orientation.

Approach
An approach refers to the entrance of the building i.e the path way by which the
person get connected with the entrance of the house.
 Types of approach –
 Frontal Approach - A frontal approach leads directly to the entrance
of a building along a straight line, axial path.

2. Oblique Approach – An oblique approach enhance the effect of perspective on
the front façade and form of a building.
3. Spiral Approach – a spiral path prolongs the sequence of the approach and
emphasizes the three-dimensional form of a building as we move around its
perimeter.

Anthropometrics
Interior design is all about space and people. To make a building architecturally
successful, the link between the space and inhabitant of that space is very important

Ergonomics
Ergonomics is the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of
interactions among human and other elements of system & profession

Passage Behind Chairs
The minimum space recommended for
passage behind chairs is 22 inches, a
satisfactory range is 22 to 25 inches. If
passage behind the chairs is not
required, a minimum of 5 inches plus
the depth of the chair must be provided
for pushing back chair while leaving the
table.
Size of place setting
The minimum width needed for each
place setting is 21 inches. How ever a
width of up of 29 inches is desirable
for greater freedom of movement. A
25-inch width is usually adequate;
this permits chairs 19 inches wide to
be placed 6 inches apart. The
minimum depth for place setting is 14
½ inches. These dimensions allow
space for china, glassware, silver and
elbow.

Case Study
From the plot size of 50’x60’, I have designed an living room of size 15’x15’6’’. The
requirement of the client is to give the reading area and the sitting area for guests.
And a window so that he can feel connected with the exterior environment.

Mood-Vital
Vitality and enthusiasm are best
promoted in design and graphics by
using the hue most commonly known
as vermillion, or any of its many tints
and shades. By using color
combinations with this red-orange hue
at the center, a feeling of vigor and
warmth can easily be created. These
combinations are youthful and playful
and are often seen in advertisement
displaying energetic lifestyles and
personalities. The combination of red-
orange partnered with its
complements. The following colors are
procured from Asian paints color

Contemporary
StyleContemporary interior design is the opposite of
classic. It is bold and trendy and emphasizes
popular design. In contemporary homes,
shapes and texture take the spotlight. Natural
materials, such as lines and jute are often
paired with curvy, geometric furniture and mix
and match metal and wood, unlike stark
modern or elegant traditional spaces, a
contemporary house is not afraid of colors,
bright, contrasting hues and stark black and
white are both often found in this interior
design style. Contemporary style is often
defined by clean lines with a casual
atmosphere, open spaces, natural colors, and
elements and material inspired by nature.
Chevron pattern, chalkboard paint and plastic
furniture might be popular today, but
contemporary decorating ideas always evolves
to stay on top of what’s new. When it comes to
contemporary architecture dramatic and
shapes are must have components, white
indoor-outdoor living, open floor plans and
natural light are also key.
