Green Architecture and Landscaping





Green Architecture and Landscaping

Green architecture, or green design, is an approach to building that minimizes harmful effects on human health and the environment. The "green" architect or designer attempts to safeguard air, water, and earth by choosing eco-friendly building materials and construction practices. Also known as "sustainable development", it is framed by the larger discussion of sustainability and the pressing economic and political issues of our world. In the broad context, sustainable architecture seeks to minimize the negative environmental impact of buildings by enhancing efficiency and moderation in the use of materials, energy, and development space. Most simply, the idea of sustainability or ecological design is to ensure that our actions and decisions today do not inhibit the opportunities of future generations. This term can be used to describe a ecologically conscious approach to the design of the built environment ~ or simply put an eco-friendly architecture or earth-friendly architecture that has now become a global responsibility.
Hyderabad-based firm Archtech Solutions has always been drawn to green architecture because of "serendipity, a new challenge, and just the excitement of working with hitherto not used materials as well as design demands". Where work is concerned, Abbas Razvi is led by his heart, and not his head. This designer of environment-friendly or 'green' buildings ensures there are adequate environment-friendly practices incorporated in his landscape and architectural projects.
"The environment matters" ~ That is the mantra Archtech Solutions. The projects undertaken by the firm reflect a marriage of eco friendly designs with stunningly beautiful structures and landscapes that harness the sustainability factor. They are totally committed to environment conservation and preservation.
