The team at Access Architects is dedicated to the exploration of space & the built environment while making use of technology to attain shared goals with the client for the projects efficiently. "With an unwavering commitment to bring-forth unique solutions to complex design challenges, we tend to break barriers that affect architecture and designm," adds the CEO.STAYING ABREAST & HELPING ARCHITECTS REALIZE THE COMPLETE SCOPE OF CREATIVE VISIONIn terms of architecture, technology can be summarized as the technical design and expertise used in the amalgamation and application of construction technologies in the building design process. It is the ability to analyze, evaluate and synthesize building design factors in order to produce methodological, efficient, and effective design solutions. The advancement in technology and its easy adaptation towards building design parameters has allowed Access Architects to test waters in the commercial design segment for holistic sustainable social development. The use of immersive reality helps this world to acknowledge the organic trajectory evident in the spectrum of 3D virtual engineering. "It is a myth that the use of technology turns-out to be extortionate for a project; rather, it further aids in providing superior profitability & competence to the built form in the long run," says Atul, clearing the air around technology usage in projects. BIM technology has prominently aided in delineating utilitarian designs while utilizing maximum FSI. Access Architects has been in the realm of jubilantly subsuming BIM technology for more than a decade in all their ventures. The use of technology helps the firm explore space and built environments and brings-forth unique solutions to complex design challenges. Technology breaks barriers in parameters that affect architecture and design.BRINGING THE BALANCE IN QUALITY LIFE, AND SUSTAINABILITYIn his own words, Atul paints a very clear picture of finding the right balance between seeking sustainability while not compromising on the luxuries of life and lifestyle. A concept of holistic sustainability introduced by Bjarke Ingels focuses on challenging the misconception of renunciation of a congenial lifestyle in order to acquire sustainability. At Access Architects, focus is laid on looking to counteract this very delusion with edifices encapsulating sustainability prospects and ameliorating life quality. It is the need of the hour for architects to use their design sensibility towards galvanizing the design process with the added responsibility of incorporating sustainable strategies and rendering masterful spectacles. Passive design strategies are the one-stop solution to pacify the contemporaneous needs of the AEC industry as well as the unprecedented pandemic times. The idea is to take the edge of the negative impact and carbon footprint on the built environment. Factors associated with sun orientation, climatic zones, managing daylight, and natural ventilation are the lost fundamentals of design segments that need to be revived. Landscaping also plays a significant part in passive design layouts.Also, by prioritizing steel and precast concrete as construction materials, Access Architects foresees being able to achieve its endeavor of marking India on the globe as an environmental-friendly sovereign state in terms of infrastructure and development. Today, there is a more profound understanding with respect to the importance of developing ergonomic spaces. Access Architects follows a deliberate approach in planning sustainable structures and implementing design interventions that promote livability. With the rising demand for the urban concept of living, architects have to consider user-interactive design interventions that serve for both the aesthetic and functional regime of the project.
