As the time is proceeding further, the demands for energy are increasing. This is not only causing the depletion of energy sources but also increasing the threat for the future generations. So it is very importat to have a sustainable development by the means of renewable sources of energy like Solar Energy. Sustainable Architecture aims to create environment friendly & energy –efficient buildings. This entails actively harnessing Sun’s energy to do the daily work.

Solar energy is the most readily available source of energy. It is also the most important of the non-conventional sources of energy because it is non-polluting and, therefore, helps in lessening the greenhouse effect. Solar energy can be put to great use in our day to day life vis-à-vis the use of Solar Devices. This energy is used for: Cooking/Heating, Drying/Timber seasoning, Distillation, Electricity/Power generation, Cooling, Refrigeration, Cold storage
Here is a presentation on the Solar Energy Devices and there importance.

• PASSIVE COOLING TECHNIQUES are least expensive means of cooling a home which maximizes the efficiency of the building envelope without any use of mechanical devices.
• It rely on natural heat-sinks to remove heat from the building. They derive cooling directly from evaporation, convection, and radiation without using any intermediate electrical devices.
•All passive cooling strategies rely on daily changes in temperature and relative humidity.
•The applicability of each system depends on the climatic conditions.
Here is a presentation on PASSIVE COOLING TECHNIQUES which i have prepared. Hope you get all the information you ever needed.

As in previous post, i discussed about the concepts of energy efficiency, here i am dealing with the design Parameters for Energy Efficiency.
Green building is a design process that grows out of a connection with the natural landscape. It is a set of informed decisions that considers the site and materials to reduce the cost, maintenance, and energy usage of the home.
For further information, here is a presentation which i have prepared about the parameters for energy efficiency.

We have entered in such an era where energy efficiency has become a prime concern. It not only has become important to save energy but also to generate it through various passive means which are costless.
Here is a presentation about the concept-of-energy-efficiency.

· Louis Kahn was born an 20th Feb. 1901 in Estonian Isel of Osel
· He was U.S. architect educator and philosopher and is one of tore most 20th century architect.
· In 1905 he migrated to Philaphedia with his parents and thus Philaphedia became base for his activities and vehicles for many of his planning theories.
· He was gutted at both painting and music and had scholarships in either.
· At the age of 16, inspired by his school he took architecture
· In 1924 the graduated from university of Pennsylvania school of arts.
· In 1928 because Art of Education send him to Europe due to his drawing abilities where he saw antiquity of Roman and Greek which impressed him a lot.
· In 1947, he visited, Yale as a critic and soon made professor there.
5 years later he designed an extension to yale which was the first modern building of Yale.
· In 1950 he became an architect of international status.
· Le corbusier touched his sense of architecture a lot i.e. he was inspired by him.
· After Frank Lloyd wright he was on his position.
· After Louis I’ Kahn’s death his drawings and papers were purchased by common wealth of Pennsylvania and placed in custody of Pennsylvania and museum commission.
