23 Terraces and the shells allows the day-light to enter the whole building. Plants on the façade as shading devices. Solar panels used to generate electricity. Plants growing in boxes on terraces act as living wall bio filters. Water cascade on building front to cool it down, water hyacinths clean the water at the same time as part of the Rain Water Harvesting system. Recycled water used for flushing and irrigation. Building mass cooled by peripheral water channel. Industrial waste used as insulation between walls. Air-conditioned air pumped closer to work level instead of ceiling level. Features
