In an attempt to learn from the wisdom of the past, this paper analyzes the
architectural design of a traditional courtyard house of Lahore, known as the
Barood Khana Haveli. For this purpose, the archetypal level of the ‘Deep Beauty
Framework’ is explored to find out the presence of geometry, number and
proportion, as well as the inclusion of the four survival characteristics given by
Grant Hildebrand (2008): complex order, prospect, refuge, enticement and peril.
Among the various design strategies that are found in the haveli, this research
discovers the use of root rectangles in the plans and geometric patterns of the six
and eight-point stars in the decorative details. Examination of the prospect
claiming courtyards, refuge spaces such as the verandahs, and paths that turn and
disappear, offer inspirational ways in which designers can create more
meaningful and life enhancing architectural experiences.
