Security Post
Peshawar, Pakistan

This building is the basic prototype for a series of planned posts in this province. Its simple and functional design will easily enable its replicability in out-lying places, with a possibility of introducing variations in the decorative elements. The structure is based on traditional fort architecture with characteristics such as crenellated parapets for the roof terrace, balconies, and guard posts. Local construction techniques and traditional brickwork have been adopted.
