A team of my ARC501_F19 students (Akhila Girijan and Aashika Shibu) won the “Sustainable Architecture Design in Buildings Outstanding Team Award” in this year's edition of the Sharjah Sustainability Awards. The award was assigned to their project “Aqua Care Machine Park.”

This is great recognition for a sophisticated research seeking sustainable architectural solutions for the regeneration of problematic urban areas.
