SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN


Why Sustainable Design services are required? Architecture is referred to as a built environment which is these days threat to natural environment because globally buildings account for 40-50% of energy use, 40-50% global carbon emissions and are responsible for global warming.

Sustainable Built Environment has a possible solution to save natural environment, increase indoor environmental quality and thermal comfort, decrease carbon emissions and overcome energy crises also climatic worst impacts.

Energy Efficiency & Decrement in Carbon Emissions

Passive Strategies: A well oriented building can benefit from natural ventilation, solar energy, day lighting and passive heating and cooling from the Sun and the wind. Hence to benefit from the above discussed passive design opportunities we determine the best building orientation also plan ventilation patios, solar chimneys, stacked windows, vents, evaporating cooling, Earth tempering, and divert breeze through your home using plantings and windows.

Renewable Energy Production: Renewable energy is derived from Sun, wind, water or the Earth’s core. Renewable energy has lower pollution emissions, reduced health risks, and helps preserve natural resources. We recommend and select renewable energy systems to offset building energy costs depending upon the project situation e.g. Building Integrated Photovoltaic BIPV and Solar Water Heaters.

Reduction in Building’s Carbon Footprint: Reducing a building's carbon footprint reduces its running costs, and make Buildings environmentally responsible, profitable and healthier places to live and work in. To reduce a building's footprint we recommend most efficient HVAC Systems, Continuous Insulation without thermal breaks, state of art lighting solutions, appropriate interior finishes (low VOC), innovative types of glass, advanced claddings & systems, advanced shading and intelligent facade components.



Our strategy of work

The responsibilities include but are not limited to following:
1. We act as Integrated Building Technology System Designer and prepare integrated designs with involvement of Civil & MEP Engineers, Interior Designers, Contractors and Material and System Suppliers.
2. Working as cohesive team, we set sustainable & aesthetical goals of the project and promote synergies between the parties.
3. Collaboratively we work on Schematic Design, Design Development along with energy systems and finally prepare detailed Construction Documents
4. Prepare schedules, logs and progress reports to control work within specified time line.
5. Supervise work at site to assure that the work is as per contract/approved drawings
