Sustainable Development in ArchitectureGargi Bhatele
The beginning of the presentation explains what is sustainable architecture, followed by case studies on examples of buildings built using sustainable architecture techniques. Buildings included in the presentation are, Oasia Hotel Singapore, ITC Maurya Hotel New Delhi, and Dixin Water Foundation Texas.
The document summarizes the rehabilitation of an abandoned house in Muncie, Indiana into sustainable housing. A partnership between Ball State University and a nonprofit rehabilitated the 1100 square foot, 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house using green building practices. Students were involved in evaluating, designing and completing the rehab, which incorporated strategies like rainwater harvesting, energy efficient appliances, and reuse of salvaged materials to reduce costs and environmental impact. The rehab transformed the vacant property into quality, affordable and sustainable housing.
BedZED (Beddington Zero Energy Development) is the UK's largest carbon-neutral eco-community located in Wallington, South London. Developed by the Peabody Trust, it provides 82 homes for residents as well as commercial and community spaces. BedZED uses innovative approaches to energy conservation and environmental sustainability, including passive solar design of buildings, triple glazed windows, high insulation, and on-site renewable energy generation from a combined heat and power plant and solar panels. The development also promotes sustainable transportation and water management to reduce its environmental impact.

The cluster
as
the basic unit of the
community
Green Park
Spaces for every
cluster
44 homes
Nice expansive
avenues that will be
lined with dense trees
and foliage
5. Stay Cool in all seasons…
Clusters that define
your climate
within your
homes
Green spreads within
each cluster that
would enable
removal of heat
6. Design Drivers for the unit
The design of the unit type has
been a resultant of many
drivers
• Orientation
• A central social space
• The west façade
• An interconnecting volume
10. Welcoming Double Space in your Living Room
Socio-Climatic Drivers:
Double height space integrating the two floors to experience the
volume.
11. Climate Analysis
Air conditioning is
essential through
out the year to
achieve thermal
comfort; which
would be achieved
through Nonconventional Green
methods.
