Project Overview I need a complete 3D minimalist house design (Ground + First Floor) for a wheelchair-friendly, elderly-focused home on a 21.6 ft × 37.5 ft east-facing plot located in India. The house is for a 90-year-old woman, so accessibility, safety, low maintenance, and comfort are the top priorities. Site Details * Plot size: 21.6 ft (width) × 37.5 ft (depth) ≈ 810 sq. ft (75 sq. yards) * Facing: East (road on the east side) * Surroundings: Houses on three sides, open land on the front (road) * Condition: Vacant plot * Climate consideration: Flood-prone area — plinth must be raised and site drainage properly planned Ground Floor Requirements **1 Bedroom:** Large enough for wheelchair turning radius Attached wheelchair-accessible bathroom: * Grab bars and wall handles * Anti-slip flooring and gentle slope for drainage * Minimum 3 ft wide door for wheelchair entry * 1 Common Bathroom (for guests) * Kitchen: * Exhaust fan and ventilation window * Space for a washing machine or small utility area * **Living Area / Hall:** * Adequate space for wheelchair movement * Split AC point provision * **Front Corridor / Parking Area** * **Foundation & Site Design:** * Elevated plinth above flood level * Borewell, septic tank, and sump tank placement * **Doors & Windows:** Steel-based, pest-resistant * **Ventilation:** Cross-ventilation and natural light in all rooms --- ### First Floor Requirements * **1 Bedroom with attached bathroom** * **1 Extra open bathroom or wash area** * **Open terrace:** * Partially covered for clothes drying * Water tap access * **Split AC point in bedroom** * **Provision for future expansion (additional room)** --- ### Design and Construction Style * Theme: Minimalist, clean lines, and highly functional * Structure: Cement and steel * Flood-proofing: Raised plinth and proper drainage slope * Accessibility: No internal steps, smooth non-slip flooring * Lighting: Maximum use of daylight with LED fittings * Ventilation: Windows positioned for cross-breeze --- ### Required Deliverables 1. 2D Floor Plans (Ground and First Floor with measurements) 2. 3D Exterior and Interior Renders 3. Structural, Electrical, and Plumbing Layouts 4. Accessibility Design Details (ramps, grab bars, slopes) 5. Borewell, Septic, Sump, and Drainage Layout 6. Ventilation and Sunlight Simulation Plan 7. (Optional) Bill of Materials and cost estimate 8. Flood Protection Elevation Design --- ### Preferred Skills * Architectural design for small residential plots * Experience in designing for elderly or accessible homes * Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Lumion, or Blender * Knowledge of structural and civil engineering principles * Interior design experience with minimalist and practical layouts --- ### Objective To create a simple, functional, and elegant two-floor home that is: * Elderly-friendly and wheelchair accessible * Flood-resistant and durable * Naturally lit and well-ventilated * Easy to maintain and economical to construct
