THE ORIENTATION OF A BUILDING BEING MAJORLY INFLUENCED BY THE
VARYING AMOUNT OF SOLAR RADIATION FALLING ON DIFFERENT SIDES OF
THE BUILDING AT DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE DAY,THE AIM IS TO ENCOURAGE
CLUSTERED ARRANGEMENTS FOR HEAT ABSORPTION AND SHADING.
BESIDES SUN ORIENTATION, ANOTHER FACTOR TO LOOK AT IS THE
ORIENTATION OF THE BUILDING ALONG WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF THE
PREVAILING WINDS FOR OPTIMUM CROSS-VENTILATION AND COOLING OF
THE STRUCTURE “LONGER WALLS” FACING “NORTH” & SOUTH TO
“MINIMIZE EXPOSURE” TO THE SUN IN “SUMMER” WHILE WALLS ON
THE EAST AND WEST AT SHORTER TO MINIMIZE DIRECT HEAT GAIN FROM
SUNRISE AND SUNSET.
ORIENTATION
SOLAR WIND
SOLAR - TO LIMIT AND REDUCE THE NEED FOR MECHANICAL AND
HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEMS. EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL
SHADING DEVICES FOCUSES ON KEEPING THE MEAN RADIANT
TEMPERATURE OF THE BUILDING LOW AND SELF-SHADING,
NATURAL FLORA AND FAUNA
WIND - THE OPENINGS ARE LARGE AND OPERABLE YET MANAGEABLE ALL CONSIDERED DURING THE
METICULOUS PLACEMENT OF THE OPENINGS ALONG WIND CHANNELS AND BEHIND TREE BUFFERS FOR
ALIGNMENT WITH THE WIND AND SUN ORIENTATIONS TO LIMIT THE DAYLIGHT ENTERING THE STRUCTURE.
SPATIAL PLANNING
A WELL-PLANNED OUT LAYOUT OF
SPACES ALLOWS PASSIVE COOLING
WITHIN THE BUILDING. CORE SPACES
ARE PLACED ON THE EAST AND WEST
TO AVOID DIRECT SOLAR RADIATION
INTO ACTIVE SPACES.

• THE CAMPUS STANDS AS A TESTIMONY TO THE ORGANISATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
OF PURSUING SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT.
• DIVIDED INTO INTER-CONNECTED, INDIVIDUAL BUILDINGS NAMED AFTER THE
ELEMENTS LIKE SUN,WATER, SKY,TREE AND SEA.
• ONE EARTH IS SELF-SUFFICIENT, EMPLOYING EFFECTIVE CONTROLS AND
BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS FOR MINIMUM DISTURBANCE TO NATURAL
ECOLOGY.
• BUILT-IN LINE WITH ITSVISION OF POWERING A GREENER TOMORROW,THE
EXPANSIVE, ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY CAMPUS IS SPREAD OVER 10 ACRES.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS-
• TROPICAL WET AND DRY
CLIMATE.
• TEMPERATURE RANGING
BETWEEN 20-28 DEGREES.
CHARACTER OF SITE-
• THE SITE IS LINEAR.AND THE AXIS IS PERPENDICULAR TO THE MAIN
AXIS.
• SURROUNDING CONTEXT OF THE SITE IS RESIDENTIAL ZONE.

THE CHOSEN SITE WAS LOCATED WITHIN AN EXISTING MINIMUM RESIDENTIAL
DEVELOPMENT DENSITY OF 10 UNITS PER ACRE. IT ALSO HAD EASY ACCESS TO
BASIC SERVICES.
SITE PLANNING (INTRODUCTION)
THE MAIN CRITERION WAS TO SEEK A SITE ON WHICH CONSTRUCTION WOULD
HAVE THE LOWEST ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
1. NO BUILDINGS, ROADS OR PARKING AREAS WOULD BE BUILT ON LAND THAT
WAS PRIME FARMLAND; OR LAND WITH ELEVATION LOWER THAN 5 FEET
ABOVE THE ELEVATION OF THE 100-YEAR FLOOD LEVEL
2. LOCATED IN AN URBAN AREA WITH EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE, WHERE
THEY COULD ALSO PROTECT THE EXISTING BIODIVERSITY AND PRESERVE
THE HABITAT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
PROJECT TYPOLOGY
● THE CAMPUS IS A CORPORATE CAMPUS.
● THE OCCUPANCY PROFILE OF THE CAMPUS IS OF 24 X 7
GLOBAL SHARED SERVICE PROVIDER AND THE THINK

● THE OFFICE IS TRANSFORMED FROM A STRATEGIC
CENTER TO A GLOBAL MANAGEMENT HEADQUARTER.

SOLAR ANALYSIS
❏ WITH THE SUN RISING FROM THE EAST AND SETS ON THE WEST THE
ORIENTATION OF THE BUILDING HELPS TO MINIMIZE DIRECT HEAT GAIN.
THE DESIGNERS ALSO IMPLEMENTED PASSIVE DESIGN STRATEGIES ON
THE FACADE AND SPATIAL PLANNING TO MINIMIZE THE EFFECTS.
❏ WITH DIFFERENT QUALITY OF NATURAL LIGHT COMING FROM DIFFERENT
DIRECTIONS. THE ARCHITECT IMPLEMENTED PASSIVE DESIGN
STRATEGIES OF FACADES ON THE NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, AND WEST OF
THE BUILDING AND IMPLEMENTED A CENTRAL COURTYARD.
IN MUMBAI, THE WET SEASON IS OPPRESSIVE, WINDY. AND OVERCAST, THE
DRY SEASON IS MUGGY AND MOSTLY CLEAR; AND IT IS HOT YEAR-ROUND.
OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, THE TEMPERATURE TYPICALLY VARIES
FROM 66°F TO 92°F AND IS RARELY BELOW 60°F OR ABOVE 97°F.
SPATIAL PLANNING
❏ WITH MOST OF THE NATURAL VENTILATION COMING FROM THE NORTH-
WEST. THE ORIENTATION FROM THE SUN LOUNGE HELPS TO REDUCE
IMPACT OF THE STRONG WIND INTO THE COURTYARD. AN OPENING IN
THE COURTYARD IS TO ALLOW NATURAL VENTILATION INTO THE
BUILDING FROM WITHIN AND ACT AS AN AIR-COOLING SYSTEM WITH
BUILT IN WATER FEATURES.

ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING CONSUMPTION.
WITH THE FACADE FACING NORTH, SOUTH,

REFLECTIVE. IDEALLY,THE CEILING SHOULD ALSO
BE A LIGHT COLOR.
● OTHER THAN THAT, THE INTERIOR OF SUZLAN
