Primary wind direction along SW
A long SW faade is a foul smelling drain
Wall towards south is blank allowing the breeze to flow over the
Ventilation - analysis
The primary winds blow from the south to north over the
nallah, hence the building needs to react to this if,the foul
unhygienic air has to be prevented from entering the
building .
Thus the development of the south wall was a prime design
factor in achieving this purpose.
Here the south wall has was treated as an independent
system linking the rear walls of the building over a cavity
This cavity creates a negative pressure setting up the
convectional currents. The entire systems works very
effectively in generating the desired reverse wind
circulation.
The blank wall carries a system of cudappa.The colour
black was deliberately chosen because of its heat
absorptive power which is the highest among all colours.
Water
The central court which connects the
office complex and the guest house
section plays an important role as a
space generator .
The spaces around it follow the age old
concept of the verandah that are outside
but are shaded, hence giving a feel of
withinness to it .
The central court houses an amphitheatre
thats acts as an informal gathering but
more importantly it holds within it the
rainwater harvesting sump for the whole
complex.
the rainwater is collected through
downtake pipes at the various levels of
terraces. Thus rain water harvesting plays
an effective role in water management
Earth
Earth berm
As thermal capacity of earth is high, daily and
annual temperature fluctuations keep
decreasing with increasing depth of earth
At depth of 4m below ground, temperature
remains constant and equal to annual average
temperature
CONCLUSION
Sets a new standard of energy efficient,
