First Floor · Level 1

A day on the first floor

One flight up: off the road, under the roof's shade.

  1. Early morning

    Quieter than the ground floor and cooler than the top. One flight is enough to put most of the street's noise and nearly all of its dust below you.

  2. 9am

    A full storey above and a full storey below, on every face. That makes this the most thermally stable home in the building — slowest to heat in June, slowest to lose warmth in January.

  3. 1pm, July

    The second floor's slab is taking the direct sun, not yours. In a Lahore summer that difference shows up on an electricity bill, not just in how the room feels.

  4. Afternoon

    Openings on both faces of the plan, so with the right two windows open the home moves air without a fan — which matters on a load-shedding afternoon.

  5. Evening

    One flight down to the street, one flight up to the top. You are in the middle of the building: you hear both neighbours a little and neither of them much.

  6. Winter nights

    The warmest of the three. Heat rises into you from below and is held in by the floor above.

This floor suits

  • Anyone who has spent a Lahore summer under a bare roof slab and does not wish to repeat it
  • Buyers who want off the street without climbing to the top
  • Households who want the smallest compromise rather than the cheapest price or the easiest access
  • People who care more about the electricity bill than the view

This floor does not suit

  • Anyone for whom stairs are a barrier — there is no lift
  • Buyers chasing the lowest price, which is the second floor
  • Anyone who wants the quietest home in the building

Worth knowing before you buy this one

The summer argument

This is the strongest practical case for the first floor and it is rarely made: the floor above you is your roof insulation, and it is a whole storey thick. Compare July electricity bills with anyone living directly under a slab.

Where it sits on price

In the middle, and for a reason: one flight rather than none or two. Every floor in this building is priced by how far you climb.

The first floor is Rs. 57,50,000 — Rs. 11,50,000 at foundation, then Rs. 57,500 a month.
