New Delhi, Feb 23 (IANS) CP Kukreja Architects (CPKA) is set to design the township at Barmer in Rajasthan for the HPCL Rajasthan Refinery, a joint venture company between state-run Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) and the Rajasthan government.
"Currently commencing construction, the site is located adjacent to HRRL's upcoming oil refinery and in the interiors of Thar desert," CPKA said in a statement.
It said that the township is "smart and sustainable" with a focus on water conservation and management. It is based on a "regeneration" model.
"In a time when there is a rising popularity to go vertical, the township of HRRL flourishes as a sustainable endeavour with features such as low-rise edifices imbibing local Rajasthani architectural elements, dense natural vegetation, open and shared recreational areas and a well spread out water body which maintains micro-climate within and around the site," the statement said.
