Sustainable Commercial & Office Architecture

The Action for Social Advancement (ASA) office in Bhopal, illuminated at night. The building is elevated on stilts to handle a water-logged site, and the rooftop is covered with a 20kVA solar PV system, making it energy self-sufficient.

The ground floor of the ASA office, which we transformed into a wetland and public space. A raised brick walkway meanders through the plants and water, creating a cool, welcoming entrance that naturally manages stormwater.

A curved bridge connects two parts of the ASA office, framing a view of the landscape. The building uses a mix of exposed fly ash blocks and warmer brick tones, with murals adding a touch of local art.

The facade of the ASA office, showing the open ground floor that allows wind and nature to pass through. This passive design strategy, along with deep overhangs, helps keep the entire building cool.
