Water is the most precious natural resource shared by every branch of life on earth. The good management of the entire water cycle is key to create environmental resilience for humankind and ecological systems. The design of water supply and sanitation systems is central to the development of healthy environments for all. The main aim of the plumbing design studio is to plan and design economical and sustainable plumbing services. The studio was offered in the following teaching pedagogy: i. Students studied the plumbing services of their own residence and prepared a report. ii. A variety of projects such as commercial, residential, club, hospital, school, factory, township, sports complex were assigned to the students for the designing of the plumbing services. iii. The students designed sustainable and economical plumbing services of an assigned project with major design constraints:

Minimum 40% reduction in freshwater consumption, installation of the water meter, centralized hot water and RO system, rainwater harvesting, recycling and reuse of wastewater. iv. Students prepared the digital models representing plumbing services of assigned projects and also working models related to the plumbing system and design principles. v. Students visited the Jaquar Orientation centre, a residential site to study the plumbing system and market.
