Roof insulated with vermiculite concrete and china


mosaic white finish.
Insulated walls using expanded polystyrene
insulation.
Shading devices and fenestration have been
designed to cut off summer sun & let in winter sun.
Glare free day lights used through specially
designed skylights.
LANDSCAPE

Deciduous trees used in the south to shade the


building in summers.
in winters these shed their leaves thus letting in
winter sun.
The north block is made slightly concave towards
the front. South forms a hybrid convex surface
facing the winter sun.
The point of the south block broadly falls on the
surface of large imaginary cones that generated
the slightly free geometry & this allow the
architecture to break away the grid iron
apporach normally associated with solar
architecture.
