M shocked hon Pakistan m bhi aisi creativity hoti hai wow amazing

[@hhydar883]

This is truly a piece of art. Its very rare but i'm so glad that even today, some clients love to incorporate elements from Mughal architecture into their homes. ❤

[@Banjaiga]

the trend of adapting Mughal Architecture is rising in recent dacade sir.

[@alishah-kx9ys]

Beautiful master piece Syed sardar Ali Residence Mashallah

[@huzaifa18-u9o]

an incredible piece of art. I am a huge fan of sir Kamil Khan Mumtaz and i respect him a lot. he is an inspiration for me as an architecture student. his work is absolutely incredible. and not only his work but also that of all the other craftsmen. this single project shows the beauty and depth of our culture and faith. absolutely beautiful!

[@TahiraMalik-q7z]

a beautiful piece of art and Cultural showcase especially when we have become so obsessed with the modern typical architecture where no creativity is appreciated.

[@razaraza7]

I must say you male architect has a great sense of knowledge . I really enjoyed their professional commentary following good ethics, not criticising giving their own suggestions. Appreciating someone's else work is an art because we are not discussing or comparing our work with them

[@ZeeshanAmerDar]

Beautiful architecture.... took me back to Mughal Times. Hats Off to Kamil Khan Mumtaz sb

[@yaskh786]

You should also feature small houses like 5 Marla’s with unique design/concept. Concept like living big in a small house. These big grand houses are out of reach of most Pakistanis. Common people cannot take inspiration from these big houses. Do something for the common people and the masses.

[@Banjaiga]

you are right, we are working on those houses as well. stay connected.

[@ShazayKhan]

You literally spoke my mind bro

[@naumanzakir8005]

Agreed

[@Maaxhake]

Brother no offense meant , but the point of this video is to showcase historical architectural styles which obviously were based on massive areas of land. There is only so many ways you can utilize a 5 Marla space unless you go vertically. And everything above and beyond the basic structure costs significant money which is a scarce resource for most small home buyers.

[@javedsultan4830]

yaskh786 they are not selling the house.. they are viewing it with architectural point of view...your comment is foolish

[@naumanzakir8005]

Hats off to architect, builders, artisan and owner to indulge in this project! Having said that, I could not get the feel that its a lived-in residence or a museum. It feels like a mughal theme house! The producer and presenter could not show us spaces of daily living like kitchen, bedrooms, toilets, etc. quite a bit of space was used for walkways and stairs, etc I could see the split ACs’ in a few spaces. Which means, despite wind devices used in architecture, owners felt need to use AC. The presenters were obviously heavily influenced by their respected teacher and were more than needed, involved in praising & commenting about tiny details rather than showing the whole house and show how people would live in it!

[@najeebahmad7717]

Wow mashAllAh

[@saadmahmo0d]

That's not a house. Its a work of art.

[@kashifhameed1776]

My God such an amazing house.I must say, old mughal & traditional architectural work, Memorise the feelings of Haveli cultural, late 1800s, so happy to see this review video. I wish I could visit this architectural master piece.

[@tayybaashfaq5822]

I'm glad seeing people still keeping this art alive

[@hamzausman8]

Kya bat ha . This house is not a house its art.

[@khalidbanuri3257]

A highly imaginative project, depicting tradition blended with contemporary sensibility, ultimate in teamwork, transcendence through the anvils of history to arrive at balance between light, air, visibility and esthetics.

[@Banjaiga]

could not agree more.

[@WorldofHHS]

I would firstly commend the owner for amassing the courage to bring this project to life and then the whole team who made it a reality

[@aitzazahsan5314]

The commentary by these two hosts is a state of the art architectural class in itself.

[@muhammadaqib9981]

Wow Wow Wow hats off to sir Lamil khan mumtaz piece of art i m speechless thanks team Banjaiga

[@maryamtariq4640]

All the most beautiful houses in Lahore! I wish we have such beautiful architectural designs in Peshawar and Karachi too.

[@nitrogamingx7181]

Very beautiful house. interior designs are amazing.really old is gold

[@tahirsaleem4559]

It proves how we are neglecting heritage. This craftsman ship can use in our heritage buildings to preserve this art and craftsman ship. That nation can’t prove herself cultural treasure hub on the world map until and unless she preserve heritage what it was. Rest the edifice is beyond any appreciation, it is magnificent and treasure to learn the Persian and local craftsman ship. I wonder this should be turn into cultural university which give inspiration to the students and creativity synthesis in the mind of them. Rest clap and cheers to the architect and workers to such building into reality.

[@Banjaiga]

very well said sir.

[@mahnazzuberi6081]

Beautiful piece of work by the architect & team. The ceilings are amazing, jharoka in the front and woodwork is simply awesome 👌

[@murphy889]

Magnificent, never seen such detailed before. Thanks for the virtual tour team. You have done justice to this great work. Proud of Punjab. Pls keep the great work going!

[@naumanzakir8005]

The two architects were talking about ventilation devices used in this residence and in middle east. They called it ‘wind tunnel’ It is actually called wind catchers And is quite commonly seen in iran in old persian architecture! It is seen classically seen in Yazd Iran

[@hhydar883]

Wind catchers were also very common in Hyderabad city of Sindh. Check out the old pics of Hyderabad.

[@explorewithkriti8374]

☝️ House is a true example of an old world charm. As it seems to be truly inspired from Mughal Architecture

[@khawarafzalkiani2127]

Where are the inhabitants? Beautiful place there is some strange air almost like the sadness we witness in the Lahore qila and Bahawalpur s palaces.

[@Banjaiga]

we can not show the residents.

[@mekoG7]

Its not a place to live rather an ancient museum to present rich history. M still wondering why cant these be integrated with modern housing making house stylish, simple and amazing

[@mohitaggarwal7583]

Can you cover homes in balochistan or kpk. Will be good to know about architecture from there

[@bameesk6357]

Awesome 👌

[@sairahassam63]

It’s grand it’s pretty but then it’s like show me the money and i can build a freaking Taj Mahal. Real architecture comes from the ability of an architect to build a masterpiece from bare minimum.

[@sanawal7211]

i love how extra this is

[@zeetv6907]

Plot size ? Anyone knows. And covered square footage?

[@dlsmdie]

could you kindly share the name of the marble (gold/yellow/beige) that has been used on the wainscoting and the vendor?

[@RamMohammadJosephKaur]

Is this hertiage property or completely built from scratch?

[@Banjaiga]

this is completely built from scratch.

[@hawkeye1184]

Kamil saab is a genius I wish big Pakistani developers focused on promoting this type of traditional architecture instead of cheap copies of egyptian,parisian, ottoman and Spanish monuments

[@Gmjamali99]

good for museum but not for living, at least for me.

Can someone from the Banjaiga please share the size of the plot and the total cost of construction?

[@asdfghj70626]

Its a 2 Kanal plot, cost unknown.

[@logoTMM]

Is this cocktail meant to be a museum...If this is residence where is the living area?

[@asdfghj70626]

There are 5 bedrooms, but they show you only the lounge and other places.

[@superpower2829]

Really loved the design philosophy of KKM but I believe its a bit overly decorated keeping in mind its functionality and practicality. The geometry and inlay work is impressive so are the muquarnas.

[@ahmadsohail2580]

Big fan sir rameez 💀

[@grimpop88]

It’s a great design and overall quality of work is v good but why are the outside walls all chipping off ?!!

[@alimurtazakhan7957]

This is such amazing art piece by Kamil Khan. But you guys are not surely clear about materials and elements used in. So do some homework next time before documentary. Thanks .

[@Banjaiga]

Sir, all the materials are traditional & local. Modern Architects are not familiar with those materials. the main reason to that is client's usually don't like these local materials.

[@ashraf3253]

[@AliAsghar-co7xt]

Sir is this affordable or not ?

[@Banjaiga]

considering the current inflation. this craft is expensive.

[@Zartisham-Ali]

This is more an artwork nor a house. A house should look like a familiar design that feels a welcoming environment while this building priotizes artistic impression over a functionality and comfort, and that it doesn't feel like a welcoming home. The architect is nice but misses the feel of comfortable and inviting accommodation.

[@imrankhizar7]

can it be built in this times ?

[@Banjaiga]

yes, it is built in this time.

[@asdfghj70626]

Yes completed in 2021

The colour schemes are not appealing. They don't come together, the individual art is beautiful but when looked at together there is no harmony amongst them. Goes to show how amazing the architects of mughal time were they have created wonders which people can't replicate even today!
