Four out of five climatic zones in India receive rainfall and Cherrapunji, a sub-divisional town in the state of Meghalaya is credited as one of the ‘Wettest Places on Earth’. Rainwater harvesting is a significant component in designing sustainably, particularly in master planning projects where water management is a critical component of design. Rainwater harvesting for flushing, irrigation, and natural ground water recha ...

Learning Sustainability from the Vernacular

By Pratibha Chauhan

Sustainable architecture has always been a part of the design history of India but today it has become especially important. There are multiple reasons for this importance.

Safety and Security

By Sonali Rastogi

We need to start thinking of our buildings and cities as Bazaars (places of human interaction) rather than only as Machines (places of human habitation). So how do we redefine our urbanism as an emergence of interwoven networks? The first thing is to determine the carrying capacity of t ...
