Eco Friendly Homes: Builders, Design Plans & Smart Projects

Did you know? Only 1% of India’s residential construction is currently certified green, according to the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC). This reveals a massive opportunity for homeowners and builders alike to lead the charge toward a sustainable future. Eco friendly home builders like Architect Trupti Doshi are redefining what it means to build not just homes, but living, breathing ecosystems of well-being and ecological harmony.

At Auroma Architecture, based in Pondicherry, India, every building begins with a simple yet profound question: Can this home be a living organism that nurtures its inhabitants and its environment alike? The answer lies in our conscious design ethos, intelligent use of resources, and unwavering belief in the power of architecture to unfold human genius.

Meet Architect Trupti Doshi – India’s Trailblazer in Eco Living

From creating the United Nations-acclaimed Sharanam Rural Development Centre to designing India’s first “House of Tomorrow” – Gratitude EcoVilla, Architect Trupti Doshi has consistently demonstrated that sustainability need not be a compromise—it can be a creative revolution.

As the co-founder of The Auroma Architecture, Trupti Doshi brings over 25 years of experience in eco friendly home project development—fusing art, science, nature, and community participation to deliver projects that are as nurturing as they are revolutionary.

Why Choose Eco Friendly Homes?

When we think about a home, we imagine safety, warmth, and belonging. But a truly eco friendly home project goes further—it becomes a life-enhancing ecosystem. Here’s why they matter:

• Healthier Living: Non-toxic materials, fresh indoor air, and natural daylight improve physical and emotional well-being.

• Cost-Effective in the Long Run: Passive cooling, solar energy, and water harvesting significantly reduce utility bills.

• Lower Carbon Footprint: Buildings made from earth, lime, reclaimed wood, or fly ash bricks use dramatically less energy than conventional structures.

• Regenerative Design: These homes give back to the Earth—through composting, water recycling, and food production.

Our Approach to Eco Friendly Home Design Plans

Every project at Auroma Architecture is a unique response to the local context—its land, climate, culture, and the dreams of its inhabitants. Our eco friendly home design plans are not off-the-shelf templates but bespoke journeys tailored to each client.

We treat homes like living beings. Inspired by Trupti’s TEDx talk, our homes become mothers—nurturing, harmonizing, cooling, and enriching lives. Just like a mother’s embrace, these homes breathe, adapt, and comfort their residents.

Core Principles That Guide Every Design:

• Orientation for Sun & Wind: Structures are positioned to reduce heat and maximize ventilation.

• Passive Cooling: Deep verandahs, shaded windows, and thermal mass maintain comfort without air conditioning.

• Natural Materials: Earth, lime, reclaimed timber, fly ash bricks, and low-VOC paints are prioritized.

• Daylight Optimization: Buildings designed like the human eye, regulating light while eliminating glare.

• Water Wisdom: Rainwater harvesting, wastewater recycling, and organic waste composting integrated into the layout.
