“My work has been the forward journey progressing with improvements. Empathy towards all living beings drives my design towards sustainability and regenerative built environment.”
Master Thesis: Spring 2021
Designing a net-zero energy building project requires a holistic approach which starts from preliminary sketches to final execution of the project. This project is a demo of net-zero energy countdown at every stage of the design showing the improvements and decision-making process. Softwares used: Rhino, Grasshopper: Ladybug, Honeybee, Revit, Enscape, Photoshop, InDesign.
Academic Project: Spring 2020
This project involved understanding of climate zones in USA, comparative analysis of heating and cooling loads taken by different building forms and orientations, daylight study and impacts of shading with different window wall ratios. With the help of the analysis done, design is able to achieve 20% reduction in Site EUI as compared to baseline benchmark.
