many of the existing trees in the landscaping. Houses take on the unique terraced character of the landscape and are built on multi-levels. Spaces within the homes are efficiently planned and the area wasted in circulation is saved by reducing the number of walls. light pools are created through a play of single and double height spaces. Maintaining a low density for the houses, the carbon footprint of PalmGrove is greatly reduced by utilising less than the maximum permissible area allowed to build.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">As a result, the use of material resources is reduced, ensuring a lesser burden on the land.A combination of energy-efficient and locally-available materials used for construction of these homes helped in reducing the transportation and manufacturing cost. Burnt brick, which has excellent load-bearing properties and minimises the use of steel and cement, has bPG7een used extensively in this project. It\u2019s a material that breathes and helps keep homes cool. Stone, another locally\u00ad available material with excellent insulating properties and aesthetic beauty is fPG3eatured extensively in the building facades. Today, building with stone is a craft that is slowly disappearing with the increasing dependence on factory-made synthetic materials and GoodEarth aims to revive its use.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><style

windows and is used even for floors in some spaces. Rather than using precious forest trees, recycled wood-from houses that were demolished, from packaging cases, and from plantation timber-was used wherever possible. Wood and clay have been primarily used for the floors-materials that offer better insulation and comfort than synthetic floors and also age beautifully. The roof is insulated using a double layer of concrete and cellulose bitumen sheet thus creating a lighter form and less use of concrete.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The paint used is distemper, which is lead-free and low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs).All the homes are designed to offer adequate natural light and cross-ventilation. Large windows, wide verandahs, air channels to release hot air, and thermally conducive materials reduce the necessity for artificial light and ventilation. Rainwater is harvested and the ground water recharged through well spread out percolation channels across the property.Rina Sen, a resident, recalls the participatory nature by which the architects designed her home, remarking that it always felt like interacting with family rather than a corporate developer\u2013one of the many reasons PalmGrove manages to nurture an intimate sense of belonging
