Passive Climate Control
Building envelope design that maximizes natural ventilation, thermal mass, and solar protection. Traditional techniques like courtyards, verandas, and elevated structures adapted for contemporary use.
Material Innovation
Local material sourcing including laterite, bamboo, palm thatch, and tropical hardwoods. Creating resilient structures that breathe in humid climates while reducing environmental impact.
Water-Conscious Design
Integrated rainwater harvesting, greywater recycling, and stormwater management systems. Designing for seasonal rainfall patterns and water scarcity challenges.
