Climate Responsive Architecture. The project is situated near Bhuj, Gujarat. The site receives very little annual rainfall and thus has a very dry terrain with only  cacti and wild babool trees scattered around the contour.   The design aims to counter harsh radiations of the sun by mutual shading and overhangs. Heat driven stack-vents to promote exchange of air through spaces and surroundings.
