Global Indian International School Bannerghatta Bangalore is designed keeping the surrounding natural park in mind. Another design aspect considered is biophilic design
which focuses on reconnecting people to the natural environment.

The structure which is designed is not only environmentally responsible and resource efficient, but also integrates health, wellness and positive experiences. Only 20 percent of the ground area is built up, the rest is all open space. Every room is designed to ensure that there is sufficient natural light and ventilation. All efforts have been
made to blur the difference between the indoor and outdoor. There is a free flow for movement of the children between the various activity centres both indoor and outdoor.
A number of initiatives have been undertaken to reduce the carbon footprint of the school.

Rainwater, Recharge and Harvesting: All the water from the roof are via a series of pipes taken to the recharge pits in the ground. The overflow pipe is connected to the harvesting tank. The water from the harvesting tank is used for landscaping. The entire drain and waste water from the toilets will be treated through the STP and stored in the overhead tanks for landscaping thus ensuring no wastage of water.

Day lighting: The entire campus has been designed to provide natural light which has a positive effect on human health. If daylight is not available LED Lights are provided to ensure resource efficiency Indoor Environment Quality. (IEQ) Special attention has been given to ensure a high IEQ with reference to indoor air quality, temperature, lighting and selection of building materials.

Exercise: The campus is designed to promote increased physical activity and exercise. Creating a walkable environment that connects children to all the green spaces and
therapeutic landscapes thereby reducing absenteeism and improve well being.
