How can architecture respond to extreme heat without relying on air conditioning?
In this insightful video, Architect Sanjay Puri shares insights from five residential projects built in similar hot-climate conditions across Rajasthan and Gandhinagar. Despite identical climate challenges, long summers, intense heat, and short winters, each project evolved with a distinct architectural language, rooted in context, materials, and lifestyle.
Key Highlights:
How to design homes that stay naturally cool for most of the year
How courtyards, overhangs, screens, and cross-ventilation reduce heat
Why local materials like brick, stone, tiles, and jali screens matter
How to retain existing trees and design around them
What happens when the same climate produces completely different designs
Projects discussed include private residences in Bhilwara, Jaipur, Gandhinagar, and a climate-responsive apartment building in Udaipur, all demonstrating how architecture can adapt to heat, density, and urban constraints while remaining sustainable and livable.
This conversation is a deep dive into how architecture can respond intelligently to climate, creating comfortable, contextual, and future-ready spaces.
