Eco Transit Oasis

The highway rest stop on the Ahmedabad-Baroda Highway features a lounge, admin area, dining space, kitchen, washrooms, game zone, work-from-anywhere area, plant nursery, and prayer space. Designed with climate-responsive strategies, it boasts a striking Terracotta Hive facade for natural ventilation, thermal comfort, and energy efficiency. The building uses materials like terracotta, wood, and concrete, along with solar panels, rainwater harvesting, and passive cooling systems. The plant nursery fosters biodiversity, while shading elements reduce heat gain. The Eco Transit Oasis seamlessly blends modern amenities with eco-friendly design, offering travelers thermal comfort.
