How to shade your windows for a cool home: Ep-0 1 New Vastu with Ashok B Lall

The window is your immediate connection to Su-Urja or good energy. It is the source of daylight, it is the source of fresh air and the breeze when the air outside is pleasant. It is your connection to the sky, and, if you are lucky, to the view of the world outside. Windows are a variable device something you can adjust according to the season and the time of day. They need to be of good design and carefully constructed.
Therefore in this episode we will talk about two important aspects, firstly how to moderate the sunlight or Surya coming in to your room and secondly what material or prithvi should one use to construct these windows.
Ashok B Lall is one of the foremost green architects in the country. He is the Principal of Ashok B. Lall Architects in New Delhi, India. He has practiced sustainable architecture for over 3 decades.

[@Shimmymb]

Not only funny but informative. Great video

[@janssencordova6366]

Id like to send positive Vibes towards the creator of this channel. I am not a technically knowledgeable person when it comes to home construction. My wife and i are currently in the home construction process though and we'd like to improve on ventilation concerns we had in our previous house. I found that the depth of discussion the channel went into helped simmer the principles i needed to learn. Love and thanks sir. Keep it up!

[@poppymansoor2241]

Im not architect but an observer I totally agree with your opinions You are absolutely correct Unfortunately this all is not considered while planning a house atleast I have not seen anybody taking all this into consideration Windows are source of heat light energy and visual comfort and seasonal treats like breeze and rain So window is everything to a house Thank you for sharing such useful information

[@user-wp4yb8er6d]

One more technic is to put bubble plastic sheet (stick with water) to inner side of outer window glass. It will allow the natural light but will stop the out side temperature to enter

[@voramuj]

Super innovative information. ✅👍 I have got large size Double Glass windows 🪟 made from Thermo Aluminum frame 🖼. Street side is Sunrise 🌄 and house side is Sunset 🌅 So, i will definitely install some installation outside of windows in the Summer.

A few months ago, I hung sheer curtains outside some of my windows. The light is pleasantly diffused, and less heat enters directly.

[@setisuafa6551]

NICE. THANK YOU.

[@awaisi5634]

Sir thanks for sharing knowledge But You need to discuss about two more things when we talk about windows Security And Mosquito 🦟

[@aditipawar2873]

and lizards☹

[@6RGyan]

A good effort in the right direction. But like others have said, would have been even better if the video was only 3-4 min long. Thank you Mr. Lall and DTE for your eco friendly efforts:)

[@classicarts]

Yes, Cut the script into half. It is too long. No one has the patience for watching the whole to know about the solution., whereas the message was quite simple that "put some shades outside the windows". Next time make it crisp and short. Also the music was dominating Mr. Lall's voice. Anyways, I appreciate the good effort and good motive behind it.

My village house was built in 1960 by grandfather. My room had two windows and roshandaan. There was brick flooring. It was so cool then.

Sir all your videos are for people who can do some construction.. Huge population are staying in rented flats where they are not allowed to do any such measures. Pls suggest something which can enable the crowd who lives in these rented houses

[@anonanon5429]

Great content..

[@nikhilduggal8364]

loved it

[@MegaMusicka]

Thank you for your advises.

[@ranjanihn]

Nice informative video..The music is too overpowering though

[@karthikn8536]

Guys, watch the video at 1.5x if you think its too slow. It'll work. Music is too loud - had to mute it and see the subtitles.

[@vootmannnmn6242]

Sir, Any concept or design to keep floor cool naturally?. Just with use of water...!

[@eerankisriram]

The sun moves from east to west through the south axis.

[@riya-chaurasiya]

Plz do video in hindi

[@sangarkhan1927]

Music is too loud

[@arpstatistics7764]

Sir, the video is lengthy...what you want to convey is not clear...make it short and straight forward...

[@rkmraju]

Most important information, but annoying music

[@madhusudan2u]

Pls reduce the volume of the bgm, bit irritating

[@samsulalamsihan9721]

How to contact you, Sir?

[@sathwickborugadda4744]

too long for the information conveyed......

[@mustafalaskar1313]

West side Window for Devils? So lots of devils in this Earth!!!!

[@buzgavna]

If it was not for the air purifiers that display the AIQ, we would have forever thought that this guy is making sense. Given how polluted our cities are, the last thing you want to do is open the window. This guy is all faff(hot air) and no substance. #india #urbanliving

[@RahulKumar-lg8vj]

Sir,I don't appreciate your style.You beat a lot around the bush.

[@NAVNEETKUMAR-gn2yj]

It is just basic science and you are calling it New Vastu. Because you know very well that developed countries don't follow any thing without science or logic ( as Vastu ,which is mostly provides ideas without reason).
