Most of the habitable areas are underground, tucked into the hillside, reducing the need for energy-driven air conditioning, while maintaining the original green ground coverage. Wind scopes provide natural ventilation and lighting deep within the habitable areas. Earth insulation reduces energy consumption and stabilizes cyclical temperature variations. The complex is one of India's best examples of [[Efficient energy use|energy efficient]] and [[sustainable architecture]]. It is also known for the use of a lightweight tensile structure over the dining hall providing soft, energy-free light. A recent addition is an underground conference hall that accommodates up to 80 people. | Most of the habitable areas are underground, tucked into the hillside, reducing the need for energy-driven air conditioning, while maintaining the original green ground coverage.
