Architect in Delhi for House Plans, 3D Elevation & Map Sanction
House plans, 3D elevations, working drawings and Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) and DDA map sanction for plots in Delhi — Vastu-checked, bye-law compliant, 7–10 day turnaround.
Architecture services for Delhi plots
Our architects design for Unified Building Bye-Laws for Delhi 2016 from the first sketch — setbacks, ground coverage, FAR and height are built into the plan, not fixed at sanction. Typical Delhi plots (50 sq yard to 500 sq yard plots in DDA colonies, Lal Dora villages and regularised colonies; stilt + 4 floors permitted on most plots above 100 sq m) get 60–75% coverage and, for builder floors, stilt parking with a lift shaft designed in.

What Delhi families ask for
Vastu-compliant plans are the norm here; we place the entrance, kitchen and master bedroom per Vastu without wasting the plot, and we show every option in 3D before you choose.

Architectural design in Delhi: a practical guide for 2026
GharVistaar has looked at enough plots between Pitampura, Janakpuri and Vasant Kunj to know that a quote given over the phone is a guess. This guide covers what changes the number in Delhi, so the quote you get after the free site visit makes sense.
Approvals and paperwork in Delhi
Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) and DDA sanctions building plans under Unified Building Bye-Laws for Delhi 2016. For architectural design this means a sanctioned plan before the first footing, a structural stability certificate and a completion certificate at the end. Typical timeline for sanction in Delhi is 4–8 weeks; we file online where Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) and DDA supports it and follow up in person where it does not.
Ground conditions and what they cost
Yamuna alluvium in East and South-East Delhi with a shallow water table, and Aravalli quartzite ridge in South Delhi (Chhatarpur, Vasant Kunj, Mehrauli) where rock cutting is common. Our standard foundation here is isolated footings on the ridge; combined footings or raft in East Delhi and floodplain areas, always with earthquake-resistant detailing for Seismic Zone IV. On plots near Rohini Japanese Park and Saket Select Citywalk we have seen both easy digs and surprises; the ₹8,000–15,000 soil test is the cheapest insurance in the whole project.
Material logistics in Delhi
Steel and cement reach sites along Ring Road, Outer Ring Road and Mathura Road from authorised dealers; on narrow lanes in Rohini we schedule deliveries early morning and stack material inside the plot. Delhi work is dominated by builder floors on 100–300 sq yard plots — stilt + 4 with a lift — under the Unified Building Bye-Laws 2016. Site access, material stacking on narrow colony roads and neighbour NOCs are as much a part of the job as the RCC.
Localities where we are active
Dwarka, Rohini, Pitampura, Janakpuri, Vasant Kunj, Saket, Greater Kailash, Lajpat Nagar, Mayur Vihar, Laxmi Nagar, Shalimar Bagh, Punjabi Bagh, Rajouri Garden, Uttam Nagar and the plotted colonies off Ring Road, Outer Ring Road, Mathura Road, Mehrauli–Badarpur Road. Landmarks near our current or completed sites: Dwarka Sector 21 Metro, Rohini Japanese Park, Saket Select Citywalk, Nehru Place, Karol Bagh Ghaffar Market, Chhatarpur Mandir, Mayur Vihar Phase 1 Metro.
