Roof Structure:
Ferrocement cast-in-situ ribs act as the beams for the R.C.C. roof, taking the structural load.
R.C.C. supports tie the ribs to the cob wall, transferring the load.
Load bearing cob walls
Plinth of random rubble masonry, supported by a stone foundation.
Salient Features: 1. The children using this space come from a past of abandonment and disconnection. For this reason, the design uses an open plan, with connectivity between all the classrooms and coridoors to enhance interactivity and playfulness between the children. 2. The breathing walls are made during construction, by leaving openings using waste materials in the mud walls. This allows areas to be naturally lit and well ventilated, saving energy and cutting power costs. 3. The form itself screens outdoor play areas, and brings a sense of privacy to the children. The entire project is designed to be an amalgamation of joy and love, for the children and the earth around them.
ELEVATION
The Children Of the Earth project is undertaken as a zero-fuel site, contrcuted using only manual labour. In this manner , jobs can be created for the local builders and artisans in an attempt to get the community involved for the constuction of this kindergarten for orphans. The sustainable mud construction will help keep the structure cool and well ventilated in the hotter summer months of South India.

Salient Features: 1. Since the building is surrounded by structures on all sides, the structure is composed so that every room can enjoy the open-ness of the indoor courtyard. 2. The courtyard is screened from outside using perforated steel. This allows the house to be well ventilated and lit throughout the day. 3. Since the southern portion of the site faces an open playground, the southern elevation is designed to be aesthetically pleasing to those who observe it from the park. 4. The structure is made from Compressed Stabilised Earth Blocks (CSEB), with R.C.C. framework. 5. The residence harvests rain water, utilizes solar energy for electricity as well as water heating.

Northern Elevation Salient Features: 1. The design plays with facade openings in such a manner that it allows spaces to be well lit and ventilated throughout the day, reducing the energy consumption of the building. 2. On the terrace, solar panels are set up for electricity generation. 3. The pedestrian, vehicular and bus trafďŹ c and parking are worked out to ensure maximum flow of movement from any two points on site without obstruction. 4. The site drains are strategically placed so as to ensure rain water collection and water recycling on site. 5. Bus parking is designed such that any one bus can operate independently of the timings of any other bus, with free space to circulate, and extra parking bays in case of future expansion.
