environmentally friendly, and healthier atmosphere.

The reduction of waste eventually leads the resort to a decrease in toxicity resulting in an increase
of sanitation.

The aim is to design a resort which is energy efficient and sustainable to the environment (only on
design basis), i.e., it does not harms the environment.

1.4 Objectives:

To analysis the basic services and relate it with the energy efficient measures of the building.
To analysis basic technical functions of the spaces and their inter relationship in a Green Hotel.
