As a result of these studies .the house has diverse system of isolation like its double height courtyard (surrounded by room’s & activities) to help hot air to rise up and let go .which helps air circulation,
Large overhangs are provided to control harsh sun .so that we get large (low-E) glass openings for natural Light & ventilation.
System of pluvial water harvesting is develop to catch rain water and disperse it to the court &outdoor landscape, vegetation
