在印度Raipur，由Sanjay Puri建筑事务所设计的这个彩色的住宅综合体的特点，是拥有方形的阳台和装饰性的凹窗，它的设计可以承受当地炎热的气候。这个名为Shree Town的项目是由孟买的公司用粉红色、蓝色、橙色和桃红色混凝土设计的，是一栋充满活力的公寓楼。

Boxy balconies and decorative recessed windows characterise this colourful housing complex in Raipur, India, by Sanjay Puri Architects, which was engineered to withstand its location's hot climate. Called Shree Town, the project is a cluster of vibrant apartment buildings designed in pink, blue, orange and peach concrete by the Mumbai-based firm.

该住宅综合体位于Raipur城外的一个大型景观公园中，占地24281平方米，是为水泥厂Shree Cement的员工开发的住房。

The residential complex is arranged across 24,281 square metres in a large, landscaped park just outside of the city of Raipur and has been developed as housing for employees of the cement plant Shree Cement.

Shree Town包括一些中层建筑，其中有72套单间公寓、48套两居室公寓和48套三居室公寓，还有一所学校和一个多功能俱乐部在建筑群的周边。

Shree Town comprises a number of mid-rise buildings that house a range of 72 studio apartments, 48 two-bedroom apartments and 48 three-bedroom apartments, as well as a school and a multipurpose club on the complex's perimeter.

Sanjay Puri建筑事务所表示，这些建筑的 "有机 "布局借鉴了印度古老村庄和城市的配置。厚实的矩形阳台从建筑明亮的立面中伸出来，而成群的凹窗强调了它们尖锐的角度。

The "organic" layout of the buildings takes cues from the configurations of old Indian villages and cities, according to Sanjay Puri Architects. Chunky rectilinear balconies jut out from the buildings' bright facades, while clusters of recessed windows emphasise their sharp angles.

室内空间的设计采用了对比强烈的中性色彩。“不同的颜色组合被用来识别住房内不同的建筑类型，”该公司说。“鲜艳的颜色是印度传统节日、服装、饰品、住房和食物的组成部分。”

Interior spaces were contrastingly designed in neutral colours."Colour plays an important role in the project, with different colour combinations used to identify the different building typologies within the housing," said the firm. "Vibrant colours are an integral part of traditional festivals, clothing, ornaments, housing and food in India."

Shree Town的设计考虑到了当地的气候，每年有8个月的温度保持在35摄氏度以上。为了解决这个问题，每套公寓都有交叉通风，而他们的阳台也被覆盖，以便在一天的任何时候都可以提供遮阳的功能。

Shree Town was designed with the local climate in mind, which can see temperatures remain at over 35 degrees Celsius for eight months of the year. In order to tackle this, each apartment features cross ventilation throughout, while their balconies are also covered in order to offer shade from the sun at all times of the day.

建筑事务所还为每栋建筑增加了中央遮蔽的庭院，以及在每个街区之间都有郁郁葱葱的花园。Sanjay Puri建筑事务所还在综合体内创建了一个污水处理厂，所有的水都可以被回收和再利用。该公司解释说，一个“广泛的”雨水收集系统也被整合到这个项目中，是“自给自足”的。“Shree Town是一个与环境相关的住宅项目，它的设计是可持续的，以应对气候，吸收了传统的规划原则和文化回应，”公司总结道。

The architecture firm also added central sheltered courtyards to each building, as well as lush gardens in between each block. Sanjay Puri Architects created a sewage treatment plant within the complex where all of its water is recycled and reused. The firm explained that an "extensive" rainwater-harvesting system was also integrated into the project, which it says is "self-sufficient"." Shree Town is a contextual housing project that is sustainably designed to respond to the climate, imbibing traditional planning principles and cultural responses," it concluded.
