	AN ECOTEL HOTEL
(Passive Energy Conservation Efforts in Design)  THE FAÇADE Depressions and protrusions in the façade play an important role since majority of the dead walls remain under shadow thereby reducing the surface radiation.  THE PLAN CONFIGURATION The building is positioned in such a manner that the centre point of its parabolic shape faces the NORTH- EAST, hence reducing the direct sunlight there by reducing electricity consumption, by way of less air conditioning and lighting  ROOF TOP The roof top is treated with 3 layers of coba( clay brick) , which is a natural resource. This acts as an insulator from heat and noise, thus reducing air conditioning load.
