Light is Right

Be Responsible Be Sustainable

Can Architecture foster growth and harmony while revering the Environment?

As conscientious designers, our designs should tread lightly on the earth as they make a statement. The 17th year of Transparence encourages you to celebrate Nation Building through your designs and ideas. We look forward to holistic solutions on buildings that foster growth and harmony such as socio-cultural institutions, libraries, institutions for health and well-being, nature interpretation centres, ecological field stations, scientific learning or anthropological research premises, museums and beyond. Students and Colleges (through their studios) are encouraged to question the permanence of architecture and design by exploring responsive and reversible buildings. Your design should aim at carbon and energy neutrality by generating a positive impact on the environment and biodiversity at the site.

Lean and light is an approach to the construction process that increases the project value by reducing waste of resources, time, and work. Many experts have hinted at lean construction systems being the future in the building industry. For many leading firms across the world, the light and sustainable approach represents a smart business practice and social responsibility at the same time.
