A new State Guest House for Rajasthan on Prithviraj Road, New Delhi, built around a central courtyard and atrium and drawing on the facades of Rajasthan's traditional Architecture.
About the project
The Government of Rajasthan is rebuilding its State Guest House on Prithviraj Road in New Delhi. The new building replaces the old Rajasthan House and serves as an official residence for visiting state dignitaries, particularly during state visits and important events.
A courtyard from Rajasthan
The design draws on Rajasthan's traditional Architecture. A central courtyard and elements of the state's facades shape the building, and a central atrium is its focal point, opening up the interior and giving a sense of connection throughout.
Different guests arrive by different routes. Senior dignitaries, other guests, staff and services each have their own entrance, lift lobby and staircase, with services in the basement, so that each group keeps its privacy. The Guest House aims for a GRIHA 5-star rating.
