structures that integrate form with function. more...

- A
solar-powered lamp, which is as thin as a magazine cover
and sticks onto most surfaces has been developed by a Hong Kong
inventor, a media report said.
The
lamp has electroluminescent
material on one side and solar panels and sensors on the other.
The
lamp can be stuck to a window where the solar panels absorb sunlight to
charge the lamp which can then be taken down and placed in a room to
provide light at night.

buildings for a new India
Energy savings of up to 60% are achievable if buildings are designed
using green design
principles. The final selection of the design measures should be done
after
doing
a cost benefit analysis of the same. Typically, the measures described
have a payback
period between 1-3 years.
In the current perspective of increasing energy demand for
powering the energy intensive systems in a building, time has come when, green
design should not be an isolated effort by an inspired individual, but
a standard
design process which is adopted in all our future buildings.

damage they cause to plants and promote plant growth — by 14 percent on
average.
