Zero Energy Design Lab

ZED Lab is a Delhi-based, research-driven, architecture and interior design studio specializing in net-zero energy buildings since 2009. With sustainability at the core of its design process, and architecture as its synthesis, ZED Lab works towards improving the quality of life//human comfort in symbiosis with the environment through the holistic lens of research, design, and construction. Through its award-winning projects across residential, hospitality, institutional, commercial, and industrial sectors, the studio seeks to push the envelope for economically viable building systems, optimized for energy savings. As vision facilitators, idea generators, and design integrators, ZED Lab works collaboratively to formulate strategies that draw inspiration from the Indian vernacular for present and future needs. Zed Lab’s design approach is informed by a deep and innate understanding and application of age-old bioclimatic wisdom, using cutting-edge technological tools such as parametric design. Through climatic studies, simulation models, custom software, and physical experiments, the studio explores every facet of design that goes on to determine the nature, shape, and form of a project, making it uniquely positioned to deliver long-lasting and impactful solutions. The studio’s work has been published in leading national and international publications and has won numerous awards.
