// CLIMATE TALK !!
THE WORLD IS NOW SLOWLY REALIZING THE SERIOUSNESS ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE . BEING AN ARCHITECT , WHAT IS YOUR
TAKE ON SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE IN ARCHITECTURE TODAY ?
DEV & KAUSHIK : Sustainable practices have always been prevalent in a country like India since time immemorial . It is saddening that we had slipped away into practices that have stressed out our environment to a great extent . Our take on a sustainable practice would be to learn and educate ourselves and our clientele as much possible to think environment friendly . We do make efforts to try and include materials that are less
stressful to the environment . As a young practice we have always tried to design spaces knit around greens . Our love for using a lot of plants in our spaces is also visible in our studio in Hyderabad . We also have used and collect arts sourced locally as a practice of sustaining Indian Art practices .
