Castle Earth

This 750-square-meter eco-friendly home has been created with a strong emphasis on sustainability, taking up only 40% of the site, allowing 60% for green spaces such as a central courtyard, a water body with a floating temple and various outdoor places. The three-story tower has a winged roof that represents the transition from grey to green and plays an important role in solar power generation and rainwater recycling. The home emphasizes sustainable principles by being built with earth-sourced on-site and locally available natural resources. The building's orientation responds to the local environment, enhancing daylight, natural ventilation and energy efficiency. Interlocking mud bricks, high-performance glass and renewable energy systems are among the premium features, all of which aim to reduce construction waste. Eco-friendly attributes include a theme wall depicting environmental metamorphosis, a courtyard separating residential and professional spaces and an earthen entrance porch with a wing-shaped pergola. The roof, ornamented with custom-made pots, provides thermal comfort through hollow terracotta blocks and rafters. A private patio area, bamboo screens and manicured walks enhance the natural ambience. Sustainable construction approaches result in overall material savings: 90% in stone foundation materials, 25% in plastering and cement, 60% in steel and 85% in cement. The design minimizes environmental effects while providing a healthy and invigorating living environment.
