frends,

can anyone please help me in designing the actual construction of a house which will have maximum cooling temperature capacity without using artificial air circulation.then usage of solar and wind energy (wind mill prototype can be made from series of pvc pipes)and on top of it underground storage capacity to store water at middle of the building so that i can store rainwater for my reserves.

basics:-

1)employbility of solar energy

2)wind energy

3)water harvesting

4)natural round gumbad construction for natural airconditioning.as the hot air will keep exiting from centre of the celing.

I'll be glad to help. Here are my suggestions:

Hire a good architect -- someone with experience building the kind of house you want, and who also knows enough about geology to do a proper site survey, or who will bring in a reputable geologist to do the survey. You probably should retain the services of a building engineer, too, to help with the tricky details of your plan.

Hire a good contractor to build the house for you. Make sure he is experienced, and check his references. Then check some more references. Go visit some houses he built 5 years ago and see if the owners are satisfied.

Establish a good relationship with the loan officer at your lending institution, so that nothing gets paid out without your OK.

Likewise work with a local building inspector to make sure everything is done properly and is done to whatever the local code requirements are.
