The Building is also targeting achieving a 5-star GRIHA Green Rating & the Platinum LEED India NC rating system through a slew of measures both in the passive and the active design of building envelope, the usage of materials, service provision and also by following a range of environment friendly processes within the construction program.

The makings of a truly “green” building start at the beginning- understanding and preparing the site for the building activity. The site consisted of a good number of trees. One of the first design considerations was to try and preserve as many numbers of the existing trees as was possible given the size constraints of the building without compromising on functional efficiency and user comfort. The building design went through various iterations with the final design being a compact built form punctuated by a central courtyard. The maximum allowed ground coverage was used to keep the building height comparable to the surroundings.
