The document describes the site design of Gautham Budha University located in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India. The 511-acre site was designed by architect C.P Kukreja to resemble Lord Buddha sitting in a meditative pose. Key elements include an academic zone with 8 buildings, administrative and residential zones, and facilities such as a library, hostels, sports grounds, and meditation center. Sustainable design principles were followed, such as orientation of buildings for optimal air flow, use of local materials, and passive cooling techniques.
