Aquaria Grande - Cybertecture


Located in Borivali, Mumbai, India, this beautiful structure really drew my attention. Luxurious condo living with your own private pool on your balcony. There's not more to ask, combining a simple fluid concept within the borders of a small space. Architecture firm James Law Cybertecture logo innovating the fabric of mankind really does just that. Check out the tree form of the buildings and the roof that could metaphor the notion of tree branches. What makes it even more sustainable is the following three things.
1. Solar panels to absorb excess heat gain and minimize use of indoor energy.
2. Opaque panels to resist awful glaring to indoor.
3. Transparent glass makes use of natural lighting to the roof garden.

Check out the above link for more info and let me know your thoughts on it.
