In India, where brick and cement are favored over wood, build times are usually double that, if not more. Meanwhile, a Chinese construction company assembled a 3D-printed house in just three hours.<br /><br />In India, constructing a house over months at a time means extended periods of noise and dust pollution, unsafe working conditions and the high costs of keeping contractors, security staff and labourers on duty.<br />By employing 3D-printing to pre-fabricate homes, these issues can be tackled in one fell swoop. Zhouda Group, the Chinese firm behind the three-hour construction miracle, says that 90 percent of the house it assembled in front of a live audience was built in a factory, complete with interiors, wiring, plumbing and sanitary ware.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw05_CVOyTD0EFmJZZ0_M7qHaFMv9cndBX8N2v1iU5Dw0aefaflQb5_t1SoOhHQYEQekAffdx6RjYuUWXzHrOAmhgR0k-dy6rhqxZj_NZscvkDgRI6RnionSnWNUmQYJujLSqzpIq7ww/s1600/2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="384" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw05_CVOyTD0EFmJZZ0_M7qHaFMv9cndBX8N2v1iU5Dw0aefaflQb5_t1SoOhHQYEQekAffdx6RjYuUWXzHrOAmhgR0k-dy6rhqxZj_NZscvkDgRI6RnionSnWNUmQYJujLSqzpIq7ww/s640/2.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br />In addition, this method could also reduce India’s reliance on migrant labour from rural areas. Workers are often underpaid (a 2012 study found that men were paid less than $4 a day, while women earned less than half that), pressured to press their children into service and forced to work in unsafe environments.<br /><br />And of course, once construction is complete, they are left out in the cold and at the mercy of labour contractors to find their next project.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW6K4mKjIG1cR7Nsw7aMvjsQvbos3mglKlPf_mUgANTmBVfnRQPWuYoFwgNwsazzmONmJy-t0En9pK1KPrFDYF9pf5DggY3aNw35TrBGjE8PXAW459iMAwz_6ELDt3rWb2v0qGDIy2yg/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="404" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW6K4mKjIG1cR7Nsw7aMvjsQvbos3mglKlPf_mUgANTmBVfnRQPWuYoFwgNwsazzmONmJy-t0En9pK1KPrFDYF9pf5DggY3aNw35TrBGjE8PXAW459iMAwz_6ELDt3rWb2v0qGDIy2yg/s640/3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>Entrepreneurs working on “Uber for X” is wonderful and all, but this is the sort of tech India needs to invest in next.</div>

They think that all these traditional arts will give their home a unique and exceptional look and that is also true one thing it is the own choice that what people actually prefer.

New Trends : Sleek Modern Homes Of 2015

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>In a country with a history and culture like India's, it is always interesting to see how designers and architects bring that context into their modern efforts. The single family home featured in this post was designed by the team at Charged Voids. The residence is located in Mohali, Punjab, India, which is a region experiencing tremendous modern growth at the moment. For this reason, the house was designed to be somewhat universal in its presentation. Many of the homes featured on this blog were designed with specific occupants in mind, but this sleek and beautiful home instead acts as a blank slate for whatever modern family chooses to move in.<br /><br />Because the home was not sold when building began, the architects wanted to ensure the broadest possible market for the house. This is why the design, from color scheme to building materials, is luxurious but still largely neutral. We at 3D Power think that this is the reason why they chose to adhere to the Indian tenets of Vaastushastra, ideas which dictate building layouts, measurements, arrangements, and other architectural details. While not all Indian families adhere to these ideas, a home that does will be more likely to sell.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgncAHfbGBWzBWyCrVmau2OfKQ8erweoBoMFsv4pJ3IEUnZXFLBKj3YPwedIfrFbaHY7C5cArK897F6auSYQ-WL-DwVTOgTii5UbvqrFmTU_VXecwXiJMtWyTR-zNTfSc7h5BG1jHsuYQ/s1600/beautiful-home-interior-600x400.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Time Honored Modern Bungalow Designs in India

<div style="text-align: right;">-ashwinarchitects.com</div><br /><br />Exteriors and interiors of a bungalow reflect its physical features and personality. They share culture and lifestyle with that of its occupants, isn’t it?<br /><br />With rapid modernization taking place in every sphere of human living and the technological advancements in construction, bungalow designs are transforming. Patterns in living styles and transition of house designs from traditional to contemporary are therefore unsurprising.<br /><br /><b>Did you know?</b> Bungalows is derived from the word “bangala” that the British first built in India. They were informal designs used as one-story rest house for travelers. Built low to the ground, the structure had large porches sheltered by wide overhanging eaves, a perfect way to deal with the country’s hot, sunny climate.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Indian Home Designs Are Time Honored, Yet Fresh!</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;">Gwendolyn Wright, in his book USA – Modern Architectures in History has quoted that “American modern architecture is a lively and mutable as quicksilver”*. In fact, architecture of modern homes in India has been an adaptation from the western dwelling styles. Consequently these designs were tailored to meet the requirements of the country’s urban lifestyle and culture. For example, the modern house plans for independent bungalows are got more functional with clean and strong lines.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Later influenced by clients’ requirements and expectations, building designs confirmed to vastu elements and feng shui guidelines.
