‘ As we live and as we are, Simplicity— with a capital “S” is difficult to comprehend nowadays. We are no longer truly simple. We no longer live in simple terms or places. Life is a more complex struggle now. It is now valiant to be simple: a courageous thing to even want to be simple. It is a spiritual thing to comprehend what simplicity means.’

— Frank Lloyd Wright

The definition of ‘ luxury’ has come a long way from the times of antiquity to modernity. Additionally, the interpretations of ‘ urban contemporary’ have been constantly evolving as consequential phenomena of iterations in engineering, materials, technology, processes and need. The Dawar’s family residence is one that redefines urban contemporary living in many ways.
