客户的简介是大胆而直接的 “使其具有灵感和精神”。除此之外，他们的标志是最近的一次荷兰之行，那里的大自然的强度令人震惊，在他们的脑海中挥之不去。

The client’s brief was bold and direct “Make it inspirational and spiritual”. In addition to that, they were marked by a recent trip to the Netherlands, where the intensity of nature was striking and lingered on their mind.

对这一要求的回应开始于对背景的分析，主要集中在古代印度的住宅，以及一个庭院的存在，寺庙设置在它的东北角上。我们的想法是通过移动寺庙来重新配置这种空间关系，从而将其重新分配到更远的地方，并修改空间内的能量。这种体验成为一种努力和欣赏。精神元素被赋予了它的敬意，同时保持足够的接近。这本身就是一种新的视觉和感官体验。

The response to this demand began by analyzing the context, mainly focusing on ancient Indian homes, and the presence of a courtyard with the temple set on the Northeast corner of it. The idea was to reconfigure this spatial relation by moving the temple, thus reassigning it farther away, and modifying the energies within the space. The experience becomes one of effort and appreciation. The spiritual element is given its reverence while remaining close enough. It is a new visual and sensorial experience in its own right.

当我们转向住宅空间时，必须思考它对寺庙的位置。房子必须向寺庙鞠躬，向往它，但永远无法触摸它。这种新的活动改变了院子的比例和功能，在感觉和能量上变得更加动态。院子消失了，与场地融为一体，但它在房子的保护性悬臂下生活在一个新的空间。现在，上帝、自然和人之间有了不同的关系，创造者和毁灭者的新能量现在被设定。

As we turned to the residential space, it was essential to reflect on its position towards the temple. The house had to bow to the temple, aspiring to it but never being able to touch it. This new activity changes courtyard proportion and function becoming more dynamic in feeling and energy. The courtyard disappears to be one with the site yet it lives in a new space under the protected cantilever of the house. There is now a different relationship between GOD, NATURE, & MAN and new energies of the CREATOR and DESTROYER are now set.

住宅和精神领域之间的流动变得很明显，从寺庙辐射出来的地板图案强调了这一点，并与室内空间优雅地融合在一起。 至于寺庙的外墙，它被设想为一个光学星系，模糊了体积和入口的几何形状；前面是白天，后面是夜晚。当你绕着它走时，整个旋转–从白天到夜晚–代表了地球围绕太阳的路径。

The flow became evident between the residential and spiritual realms, accentuated by the flooring pattern which radiates from the temple and merges with interior space gracefully. As for the temple facade, it was conceived as an optical galaxy blurring geometries of volume and entry; daytime in front and night at the back. A whole rotation when you walk around it – from day to night – represents the earth’s path around the sun.

绿色屋顶也是一个大胆的元素，它是通过具体的现场研究，考虑到阳光的方向而设计的。根据法律规定，这片农田上的任何建筑都不能有混凝土屋顶，所以我们决定建造一个铝制绿色屋顶，它可以提供持久的保护，防止根系和水分渗透，同时通过蒸发将30%的雨水返回到自然循环中。屋顶保留了其中的许多其他特点。

The Green Roof was also a bold element devised through a specific site study, considering the sunlight orientation. By law, any structure on this farmland could not have had a concrete roof, so we decided to build an aluminium green roof that would offer lasting protection against rooting and moisture-penetration while returning 30% of the rainwater to the natural cycle by evaporation. The roof retains many other characteristics of which:

将二氧化碳回收为氧气，在建筑周围产生一个健康的微气候。
改善季节性的内部热性能。
Kalzip系统还支持太阳能电池板，这也可以被整合。
一条走道穿过整个屋顶的长度，用于维护。
悬臂式玻璃屋顶延伸了屋顶的几何形状，几乎到了寺庙。
SUNOO拥有印度最大的住宅绿色屋顶。它也是印度最长的住宅悬臂之一，跨度为4.5米。

Recycling CO2 into O2 and generating a healthy micro-climate around the building.
Improving seasonal internal thermal performance.
The Kalzip system also supports solar panels, which could also be integrated.
A walkway goes across the entire length of the roof for maintenance.
The cantilevered glass roof extends the geometry of the roof, almost to the temple.
SUNOO has the largest residential green roof in India. It is also one of the longest residential cantilevers in India, spanning 4.5 metre

其结果是一个充满活力和多样化的绿色植物阵列，与寺庙的外壳有机地流动。苏努寺的房子成为一个高效、绿色，最重要的是舒适的灵感和精神空间。

The result is a vibrant and diverse array of greenery that organically flows with the temple’s shell. The Sunoo temple house becomes an efficient, green and most importantly comforting space of inspiration and spirituality.
