Environment , Economy & Pollution !

The effects of population and economic growth on the environment depend on a huge number of complex factors. The most important are the quantity or the amount of materials withdrawn from the nature, the efficiency with which they are transformed into goods and modified into services, and the environmental impacts of their use and disposal. If an economy becomes more efficient or it shifts towards products or services with lower impact, the environmental effects of a given level of activity can be reduced, while living standards increase.

Most of the major challenges set are more complex, with the negative conditions in the environment a result of the actions of a large number of people. The interdependence of a healthy and wealthy environment and a sound economy is a concept now more clearly understood, and future approaches will need to be based on a more sophisticated integration of regulatory, economic and persuasive approaches. Change will also need to be managed in an inclusive manner. Many positive actions in this direction are already executed at all levels of the community.

Dress up your construction, don't ignore structural health !

In India, specially at Kolkata, a new trend / practice has began . Most of the builders dress up their construction like a bride on her first day of wedding ! Buildings look beautiful and glamorous, but for a few days . It is only when the 'bridal' make up of the building comes off after a couple of odd seasons ; one get to see the building / structure as it actually is !



Most of the buildings are only elevation oriented, not safety oriented . Normally; a weak, poor structure is covered with beautiful cladding. That obviously does not improve the overall quality of the building because the safety is completely ignored . Exceptions are there, but as we know, majority rules ! After all, a gorgeous make up of a building gives more profit to the builders /promoters . They provide swimming pool, gymnasium, community centre , club etc. and take a decent amount of money from the buyers . They don't look after the safety, stability and quality of construction for the main dwelling structure where the buyer has to live most of the time .
In comparison, small, single unit apartments are built with some amount of safety consciousness . These builders don't have a huge money to provide exotic elevation , so they properly emphasize on the structural beauty and health !


The tiny Residential building project , where safety is the prime concern !
Holy Construction at Kolkata .


Have any Question to Ask ?

Aesthetics , the prime idea of beauty in interior designing.

Aesthetics, the prime idea of beauty in interior designing has always been one of the most important consideration and needs of people . In India, we have different economy group, as well as different society and thus every society or income group has certain aesthetic norms, which may differ from each other . But the basic principle of aesthetic concept and basic inclination of human mind is same for all and that is - equilibrium.

The aesthetic concept of a designer always been highly influenced by the culture, values of the society / group . The concept / work reflects designer's beliefs, his view to the society and his feelings and affection for the people .

Hence, a well built and aesthetic architecture or interior not only reflects designers overview and concept as well as culture of the society .

BE CAREFUL !

THIS IS A SHORTLIST TO BE CONSIDERED WHILE BUYING A FLAT FROM PROMOTER OR DEVELOPER .

• Check that the builder or the promoter has legally correct development agreements.
• Make sure that the promoter has the right authority to sell the flat.
• Check land owner's allocations if this is a joint venture agreement , to ensure that you are buying a flat which is allotted to land owners .
• Verify the sanction plan , appoint an engineer/architect to suggest.
• The title deed .
• Check violation of plan during construction , get help from engineer/architect .
• Search for any legal dispute with the land .

A legal property gives you peace for life . Usually you have to pay more to get everything perfect .

Innovativeideas are accepeted bybuilders'...

Here I am discussing about what we have achieved today in Kolkat's real estate field.

What seems very impossible few years ago , has been achieved . More and great
improvements are on their go . Not only in the construction but also in the mindset of builders and developers.
They are now a days accepting innovative ideas
for their profit making highrises.
They are now constructing buildings without ignoring
the aesthetic values . This reflecting the taste . These well built and nicely
planned buildings are the furnishings of the great city Kolkata .

Ownership flats are today's craze.

I have found lots of good , well built
building projects in and around Kolkata.
Big companies are creating great buildings
in association with higly qualified engineers.
