Seamless Surface

The direct harsh sun rays on the west facade are minimized by creating additional projecting surfaces and a void between the wall. The varying depths of these projections further help the sun rays to be cut at an angle and reduce the ambient temperature by about 2 degrees centigrade. The curvilinear geometrical intricate design on the façade is achieved with CNC cutting of the panels.

The projected area on the façade is treated with 3mx1m and 3mm thick tile staturio marble finish tiles that add a touch of grandeur. Cove lights behind the projected panels highlight the building. A male-female system was adopted with 6mm acrylic backing to create the seamless single surface. Solar panels on the terrace, rainwater harvesting, and a water treatment plant add to the building’s sustainability.
