Agrasarna: A community based center run by women

Agrasarna is located on the riverfront, Ahmedabad. It is an initiative toward sustainability. For that, the design approach is climate responsive to make it comfortable using less energy. The use of passive design strategies like spaces on stilts to create an open floor plan for better ventilation, courtyard, evaporative cooling effect, use of sloping roof, dense trees, and choice of material, is used to make the building energy efficient. With all these aspects the design is also focused on aesthetics and the experience of spaces. For further detail click here.
