Core Design Concept

Climate

Climate of a region plays a very important role in our designs. Weather and climate are primary factors that affect any region and hence, are important to design spaces that have better indoor thermal conditions.

Culture

The culture of a region is another key determinant of our architectural designs. It is the way people live and function in a city or space that defines the use and style of how the space should look and feel like.

Context

Critical Regionalism' or context is the process of design which accommodates climatic and social factors of the region where the building is to be constructed. The overall context of what surrounds the structure to be built.
