 1. INTRODUCTION
Corporate office building is located on a 6.5acre site which has a lake
on the eastern side and road towards north.
The design has a very special connect with the site and the adjoining
lake. The idea is of exploiting every view possible to the lakeside makes
any user a spectator of this serene setting

 3. PLANNING ASPECTS
 A bio lake is conceived towards eastern side of the site which responds
to the existing lake and would seem like an extension of it.
 Office building with all its ancillaries is proposed around this bio
lake. Building is oriented with longer sides facing North – South to bring
in glare free natural light
 Porosity in planning and form allows continuous movement of breeze
with wind tunnels creating venturi effect. Common areas are open and
non-air conditioned.
 The three-floor structure has terrace garden at every level.
 Free flowing Cascading green terraces which is reminiscent of rice
fields, is connected through external staircases gives a feeling of
elevated ground at each of these floors.
 Green terraces not only allow one to work outdoors, stimulate
interaction amidst the flora and fauna but also offers trails for those
who wish to enjoy leisurely walks. A walk along the proposed green
walk path covers around 650 mts
 . A green wall on the western side of the building shields the usable
spaces from harsh western sun. Green buffer zone in between green
wall and usable spaces further cuts off the radiation.

  A wide inviting staircase along cascading water body leads one
to the central spine which connects to the water body and
greenery beyond, unfolding serenity.
 This element of surprise that changes as the atmosphere around
changes has the effect of renewing our appreciation for it, so
that it remains a recurrently delightful surprise to the senses.
 Water whether at rest or in motion, strokes human spirit. The
reflection of the water takes over the central spine during early
morning hours

 4. GRIHA ASPECTS:

Sustainable Site Planning:

 The existing tree was preserved and protected during construction
and 411 new trees were planted.
 Temporary sedimentation tanks along with soil erosion channels were
constructed on site.
 The preserved top soil was barricaded and temporary seeding was
done to retain its fertility

Water Management:
 Reduction of 59.45% from the GRIHA base case has been
demonstrated in the building water use by installing water efficient low
flow fixtures
 Reduction of 62% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated
in landscape water demand by using highly efficient drip and sprinkler
irrigation systems.
 Reduction of construction water.

Energy Optimization & Occupant Comfort:
 60.96% of the habitable spaces are day lit and meet the daylight
factors prescribed by the National Building Code of India.
 Occupancy sensors have been provided in meeting rooms.
 Digital Timer control has been provided for 100% of the outdoor
lighting system

Use of low energy materials:

 83.5% of the materials used for false ceiling, wall paneling, internal
partitioning and in-built furniture were of low-energy.
 AAC blocks were used for construction of load bearing and non-load
bearing walls that contained 68% of fly ash by volume
