Hello Prayas,

There is no single layout that would be ideal for everyone. It needs to be customised per the residents requirements and floor plan.

Thanks,

Hello Mr Prayas,
Firstly make a list of yoyr requirements and decide on a budget. There is no fixed designs or layouts...it all dependabon the space you have, your needa, taste and budget. Do revert if you are interested in consultation.

Design of any house or building depends on different factors:

1. Sun path at that location, which affects ambient daylight - What moods would you like in that room? Would you not like to place you walls/windows/chajjas/fins to design your mood using that sun-path? Would you not like to keep away the summer sun and let inside the winter morning sun-rays?

2. Natural Wind direction at site; like pt 1 - would you not like the natural wind to work for you?

3. Available Structural opportunities - in your case if it's an apartment in an already constructed building, how do we use existing column-beams efficiently? Or if it's a building, are there any soft spots which may be risky for placing columns?

4. What's nearby? What privacy levels would you like in what space? You would certainly not like your bedroom voices to be heard from the corridor outside, and you would need good light in both the bedroom as well as the corridor. How do you that?

It is this reason that there cannot be a standard plan for any and every site, and why a Bachelor's of Architecture happens to be a 5 year course. Ideally, it is the duty of an Architect to consider all the above factors while suggesting a design. Over time, different architects develop their own style, which becomes the identity of the house/building to be handed down over generations.
