Intergrated Design Lab Portfolio

This whole building design report compiles the design journey of an office building to be designed in Bangalore. A series of energy simulations and building physics related analysis is conducted in an methodical manner to support the design decisions, so as to make all building systems energy efficient and high performance, leading it towards net zero energy. The idea is to implement an integrated approach in building design strategies including passive comfort, HVAC and lighting/daylighting, communications, etc. This is simulation based whole building exercise.
