An Example of Green Building Architecture
Alien Space Station, Hyderabad, India
Only 20 % of the total land is used for the construction of permanent structures
and the rest of the 80% of land is just beautifully landscaped gardens. It is
expected to go up to a height of 87 meters and house 2,205 apartments including
duplexes and penthouses.
With prime commercial & office space inside, this township is rubbing shoulders
with a huge number of upcoming projects in the vicinity making it the landmark of
the future. This project has made use of high technology and is bringing in hi-tech
featured homes to live in. It is an unparalleled urban lifestyle township with
features such as high-rise residences, home automation, biometric security,
commercial and retail zone, work space, multiplex and state-of-the art club house
with mini golf driving range.
The plan of Alien Space Station is S-shaped. It ensures beautifully landscaped
view from all the sides of the building and also provides uniform air, light and
ventilation to the building.
and maintains moderate temperature within the building. This in turn results
in economic benefits such as lower electricity costs and health benefits such
as low air pollution levels or any other heat related illness.
Quality water management practices such as rainwater harvesting and the
usage of water efficient fixtures for water conservation add another positive
perspective to resource management. Effective use of recycled water will be
practiced for plumbing systems such as toilet flushing.
An energy efficient model is laid out to reduce the wastage of resources
along with solar water heating systems and captive power generations. The
common areas including corridors, lobby spaces etc will also optimize the
usage of energy throughout the township.
Another unique feature that reduces pollution effects in the microenvironment is the usage of Quality air control systems (such as Carbonmonoxide sensors) in the parking areas along with electrical charging points
in each car park slot. There will be an economically beneficial waste disposal
system with garbage separation, to ensure mercurial wastes does not lead to
harmful effects and is disposed in the right manner.
The interiors of each apartment equally eco-sensitized with thoughtful
window/door placement that maximizes ventilation and natural lighting, and
minimizes the need for natural lighting or climate control.
