Luxury home

The Snail House by Varun Garg Architects transforms a compact 10-marla plot in Panchkula into a calm, light-filled family residence. Inspired by the geometry of a snail shell and the Fibonacci spiral, the home is organised around a sculptural staircase that gradually expands from 3 feet to 9 feet in width. More than a circulation element, it becomes the spatial heart of the residence, guiding movement and creating a continuous architectural experience across levels.

Perched high above the Arizona desert, Paradise Valley transforms its steep hillside site into a bold architectural composition that follows the contours of the landscape, and opens its multi-layered design towards the valley below.

Anchored by a double-height stone fireplace, the great room is the heart of the home, connecting t... More

Designed for clients who wanted a large, sprawling home that didn’t look large and sprawling, our Nature’s Edge home in Hudson, Wisconsin, overlooks The St. Croix River. The entryway is subdued as our clients didn’t want visitors to feel they were coming to a huge estate. JMAD JMAD JMAD The lot itself was challenging, due to height restrictions, a ravine and a bluff. But these are the kinds of creative challenges we love. In the back, it’s not a two-story, it’s two stories further away; that was the only way to get the additional space without seeing the house from the river because there were these certain angles that we had to abide by. It was a big challenge to design views to the river but m... More

In Sagaponack, New York, PJCArchitecture developed a master plan to transform a traditional, coastal spec house into a new modern home designed for comfortable living and entertaining. The original floor plan consisted of three combined volumes with pyramidal roofs, yielding a series of disconnected spaces across varying levels that lacked cohesion and flow. An initial renovation, undertaken many years ago, sought to reconfigure and modernize the interior. The renovation was the first attempt to create a more cohesive plan. Several years later, the London-based homeowners called in PJCArchitecture to further create a plan that transforms the house to meet their functional needs.  The work was completed in two phases.
