Sanjay Puri Architects Has Completed Screen 504
References: v2com-newswire
Screen 504 by Sanjay Puri Architects is a 21-story residential tower in Udaipur that thoughtfully adapts traditional Rajasthani architectural elements to contemporary high-rise living while addressing the region's extreme climatic conditions. Screen 504 demonstrates innovative solutions to multiple design challenges — from the constrained 3,690 sqm site with strict height limitations to Udaipur's scorching summer temperatures reaching 48°C.
Sanjay Puri Architects drew inspiration from historic screened balconies common in 16th-17th-century local architecture. The residential tower design incorporates a sophisticated system of adjustable shaded outdoor spaces, with each of the 78 four-bedroom units featuring five balconies — some are open, some feature traditional perforated sliding screens.
Screen 504's sustainable credentials include rainwater harvesting systems, water recycling for landscaping, use of fly ash bricks, and locally sourced sandstone, all implemented by regional labor.
