Bhagat Singh Bhavan

The Expert Panel recently selected the concept of the Bhagat Singh Bhavan to be built in Action Area II. I quite liked the concept as well as the environment friendly devices such as rain harvesting, shades and natural cooling and, mostly direct Solar-to-AC (without batteries) technology proposed. On this, I will meet Polaris next week on this. Polaris won the selection. Here is a glimpse :

  1. beautiful design. I was following the news through HIDCO website and anticipated a post on this!
    The selected area is very near from my home and that's why I am super-excited about it :) - hoping to see it completed soon!

    Regards....

  2. I had a discussion with the architect yesterday. He told me of a track-time-line concept embedded in the design. I was quite fascinated with his idea of bringing in Vapour Absorption technology of converting solar energy directly to AC without going through any battery in between.
