description

The thesis embarks on the innovative journey of designing a fully sustainable IT park, focusing on the symbiotic relationship between cutting-edge technology and sustainability. It leverages a unique opportunity presented by a lake within the site, underscoring the importance of ecological preservation through a buffer zone. This safeguarding measure not only protects the lake’s biodiversity but also maintains its role as an ecological haven and birdwatching sanctuary, showcasing the project’s commitment to environmental stewardship.

Central to the thesis is the exploration of sustainable architectural practices that encompass green building standards, renewable energy solutions, and water conservation techniques. By integrating modular construction methods, the project aims to achieve structural flexibility and scalability, reducing the ecological footprint and promoting efficient resource use. The development’s design prioritizes the creation of engaging public spaces that encourage community interaction and enhance employee well-being, reflecting a holistic approach to workplace and urban design.

Moreover, the thesis delves into office spatial planning that fosters productivity while connecting employees with nature, incorporating biophilic design principles to create a healthy and stimulating work environment. The preservation and enhancement of the lake’s biodiversity emerge as a paramount goal, with strategic interventions designed to enrich the site’s ecological value and engage the IT park community with its natural surroundings.
