Globally, people are becoming more and more aware about sustainability and how it is absolutely the need of the hour. For architecture, this means becoming power and energy conscious, while trying to make net zero buildings. Traditional Indian architecture has already been aware of this. Using easily replaceable local materials and implementing innovative cooling techniques is part of our culture, and we believe the world should follow this too.
Building Management software open ups completely new possibilities of building construction.
Romantic curved designs no longer seem to be a thing of the future or a structure of novelty, with the advent of Building Management software. Other interesting concepts such as biomimicry and bio-climatic architecture will soon become a reality from their conceptual stages. These technologies open up completely new possibilities of building construction.
Sky Terraces, GurgaonConcrete is very versatile and can be pre-cast, cast-in situ, and adhere to virtually any demand.
In India, usually concrete buildings are the norm, because that’s how it’s been. Architecture takes a certain time period to warm up to new materials, the way they can be used to construct, and its availability and so on. Additionally, concrete is a very versatile material as well, which is why it has so much popularity. It can be pre-cast, cast-in situ, and adhere to virtually any demand.
Where you don’t have much space available for storage of materials and such, prefab methods of construction are especially useful. You can just order the parts, place and piece them together and your structure is good to go. They are very good choices for small scale projects and quick projects.
Respect for architects and their work is very crucial for the industry.
Many times, people just want to skit away from acknowledging the amount of work that goes into designing and use underhand means to avoid paying the due fees. This is a fairly recurrent problem in the architecture field. You give clients a concept sketch and they have already started construction. Such actions amount to theft and dishonesty and are very demeaning for the whole industry. The mindset of people/clients needs to change towards our work for this to stop happening.
