What is Eco-Friendly Architecture?

We believe that being Eco-Friendly is actually a Quest by constantly asking ourselves

  • Can we produce the Least Damage and be Net Positive in our Contribution?

  • Can we design our Buildings to minimize energy consumption by incorporating multiple features? such as courtyard, stack effect, wind tunnels, natural lighting, ventilation, solar energy, and energy-efficient heating and cooling systems

  • Can we design the building for maximized Rainwater Capture while at the same time prevent outside water entering our premises as well as prevent water from damaging the building?

  • Can we treat our Wastewater and Discharge it into our own Ground safely without polluting the Ground Water?

  • Not just Designing for Energy Efficiency & Water Conservation, can we also Protect the Earth and environment & use Sustainable Materials?

  • Can we retain the natural resources at our site? Can we construct using the local mud?

  • Can we protect and use wells?

  • Can we have more plants and trees?

  • Can we Reduce Dumping?

  • Can Broken Concrete and Demolition rubble be reused?

  • Can we Promote Composting, Recycle Plastic, Reduce Packaging Waste?

  • Can we use Natural Materials (such as Porotherm Blocks) to reduce Heat Island Effect?

  • Can we Integrate the Landscape into the Building to enhance Local Climate Resilience?

  • Can we use sustainable, non-toxic, and renewable materials - such as Aluminium over Polymer Plastic?

There are many answers to the above questions in all our projects but the search never ends...
