Porotherm Block

Amritha and Harshit's home in Chennai is constructed using minimal cement and concrete, yet stands proud and tall and a proof that sustainable architecture can look royal.

Bengaluru-based venture buildAHome has constructed an eco-friendly home made using locally available material such as Athangudi tiles and porotherm blocks, and minimised the use of steel and cement, staying naturally cool in the summers and saving thousands of litres of water every year.
