Green Homes-Green Projects
A number of projects of the firm are green homes, which effectively use the green building techniques for developing “energy conscious homes”. The planning is mostly courtyard based, in response to the local climate ensuring maximum daylighting, ventilation. The construction material used are as specified by IGBC, to ensure a LEED rating. The building techniques involve solar passive design, filler slab construction, autoclave concrete block, compressed earth blocks, brick bat coba, plastering in vermiculite, to ensure thermal insulation, use of heat effective glass and UPVC frames to minimize the airconditioning and numerous other techniques.
