A construction project is a severe undertaking, whether an extension, renovation, or new home. Communication is the key to a successful project, and we strive for collaboration. We listen to your ideas and help you prioritize them. We can help you determine the proper budget. With years of building experience, we have something to share.
Program planning and needs assessment
- Budget for the entire construction
- Material requirement planning
- Adhering to energy consumption parameters
- Landscaping
- Provision of facilities (Water, electricity, air quality, waste disposal)
- Landscaping
- Site planning and assessment
Team selection and formation
- Selection of designers, engineers, builders or contractors, and construction workers
- Expertise in green design practices
- Simulation ability for an integrated and green design
- Knowledge of energy conservation techniques
- Experience in performing a cost-benefit analysis
Designing
- Analyze the climatic conditions, type of soil, and site's topography.
- Create strategies for ensuring the strength and durability of the buildings.
- Preserve the ecological diversity of the place.
- Promote urban greenways like walking trails and cycle trails.
- Avoid and eliminate hampering the water balance on the site and its adjacent surroundings
- Rainwater harvesting.
The building design for adaptation and acclimatization
- Utilization of the existing plantations and enhance the greenery.
- Control of the winds to balance the air pressure and thermal loss.
- Ensure access to sunlight and provision for natural ventilation.
- Create HVAC zones (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) to adjust and balance the cooling and heating demands.
- Select building materials like porotherm smart bricks that help control temperature fluctuations and adjust thermal mass.
Designing the building support systems
- Selection of recycled, locally manufactured, and environment-friendly materials
- Create modular buildings or flexible floors providing appropriate spacings for longer life.
- Arranging windows to capture the fresh air and light to reduce artificial heating and cooling and reduce the lighting load.
- Solar walls and photovoltaic panels can be used to renew the energy resources
- Use carbon dioxide sensors, plant trees, operable windows, and adequate ventilation to control the air quality.
- Wetlands, water-efficient toilet fixtures, aerobic treatment, and other integrated wastewater treatment technologies to be adopted.
Interior design
- Create separate areas for collecting waste products that can be recycled
- Select materials for indoor finishing that emit minimal air pollutants
- Encourage residents or office owners to use energy-efficient equipment
- The site must be distant from areas prone to air pollution, thus, ensuring fresh air intake.
Documentation and drawing
- Landscaping to maintain the natural habitat and eco-diversity of the living species and plants
- Water features like re-utilization of water, infiltration basins, etc.
- Energy-efficient systems like water, lighting, ventilation, etc.
- Indoor air quality
- Water-efficient systems and facilities
- Green materials and products to be used
- Regulation of waste and its disposal
Building construction and authorization
- Controlling soil erosion
- Protect the ecosystem, mainly focusing on rare and endangered species
- Reduce, Reuse and recycling strategies
- Ensuring the preservation of the topsoil

leading the way to more sustainable and efficient urban planning
Rapid advancements in technology, science and innovation coupled with accelerating economic activity and global mobility are generating new forms of prosperity in India. Yet, inequality and unemployment are growing, environmental crises are on the rise, depletion of Our finite natural resources at alarming rate, unpredictable weather conditions and frequent unexpected Natural Disasters on regular basis; in the context of control of the global commons today is highly contested. Especially when, Emerging forms of political authorities are fragmenting traditional governance arrangements of the society, Disruptive platforms for independent enquiry, collaboration and public engagement are the greatest need of the hour. New approaches must anticipate the future, co-create pre-emptive responses and cultivate effective public participation at bottom of the governance pyramid to achieve Sustainable Development .
