Interior Design of a 1 Kanal House in U Block, DHA Phase 8, Lahore

Avenir Developments designed and built this 1 Kanal house in U Block, DHA Phase 8, Lahore, then designed and furnished its interiors. The house is complete and has been handed over.

The interior is planned around a double-height lounge and a floating timber staircase that climbs over an indoor garden. White walls and polished floors run through the shared rooms; each room then takes its own accent of sage, timber or black steel.

Materials and palette

A white shell, with sage, timber and black steel as accents

Every room starts from the same base: white walls, fluted white panels lit by concealed LED lines, and polished white floors in the shared rooms. Each room then takes one accent, so the house reads as one design while no two rooms look alike.

Avenir’s scope

Avenir designed this house and built it, then designed the interiors and supplied the loose furniture, from sofas and beds to lighting and decor.

Designed and built by Avenir.

Design + Build in Pakistan

Design + Build

One firm for the house and everything inside it

Under one Design + Build appointment, the interiors are drawn with the house, so ceilings, lighting, sockets and joinery are planned before the structure is built.

Questions

Questions about this house

What owners ask when they see this project.

What did Avenir do on the U Block house?

Avenir designed the house and built it, then designed the interiors and supplied the loose furniture, from sofas and beds to lighting and decor. The house is complete and has been handed over to its owner.

Is the lounge double height?

Yes. The main lounge rises through two floors. The design uses that height for an ink-art mural on the end wall and for curtains that run from floor to ceiling beside the glazing.

How is the floating staircase designed?

Timber treads sit on a black steel stringer, with vertical steel rods running from the ceiling as the balustrade. An indoor garden with a tree is planted beneath the flight, and a glazed, steel-framed pivot door opens beside it.

What is on the roof?

A roof terrace laid out as an outdoor lounge, with built-in L-shaped seating, poufs and planters lit from below, enclosed by a screen of black vertical fins. The same fins are visible from outside, set into the white tiled cladding of the house.

Did Avenir supply the furniture?

Yes. Beyond the built-in joinery, Avenir supplied the loose furniture for this house, including sofas, beds, lighting and decor.

Are these images photographs?

No. They are 3D renders made by Avenir’s in-house team at design stage, before the interiors were built, and each one is labelled as a render. See our 3D visualisation service.

Can Avenir design the interiors of a house it did not build?

Yes. Avenir takes interior design for whole houses of 1 Kanal and above, farmhouses and apartments, whether or not it built them. The smallest appointment is a whole house or a whole floor. See how we design house interiors.

What do interiors like these cost?

It depends on the area being furnished, the specification of finishes and fittings, and how much is built in rather than supplied loose. Avenir does not publish interior rates. After a first meeting on your requirements, Avenir sends a fee proposal within two working days. For construction budgets, see our house construction cost page.
