What is the scope and responsibilities of design? This work partially answers this by employing a normative approach to design of a biomass cook stove. This study debates on the sufficiency of existing design methodologies in the light of a capability approach. A case study of a biomass cook stove Astra Ole has elaborated the theoretical constructs of capability approach, which, in turn, has structured insights from field to evaluate the product. Capability approach based methodology is also prescriptively used to design the mould for rapid dissemination of the Astra Ole.Keywords

Rural settlements in Karnataka in India predominantly use locally available resources to build their dwelling units. The houses are constructed either by the villagers themselves or by local masons skilled in traditional architecture. However, traditional houses and lifestyle are slowly giving way to modern concrete dwellings and a new lifestyle. To analyse this trend of transition to modern dwellings in rural settlements, a case study was conducted in three villages near the city of Bengaluru in Karnataka. The present article discusses this transition in the context of sustainable well-being of rural settlements.Keywords

A significant part is verbatim from Reference 35 quoting Reference 34. The paragraph could thus read corrected as: 'Well-being is important in the thinking of a benefactor and in moral argument because of its importance for the individual whose well-being it is. Rodogno quotes Scanlon on whether well-being is important to the individual whose well-being it is, as: '(a) It sounds absurd to say that individuals have no reason to be concerned with their own well-being, (b) because this seems to imply that they have no reason to be concerned with those things that make their lives go better. (c) Clearly they do have reason to be concerned with these things. (d) But in regard to their own lives they have little need to use the concept of well-being itself, either in giving justifications or in drawing distinctions... The concept of one's overall well-being does not play as important a role as it is generally thought to do in the practical thinking of a rational individual.'Full Text

A dwelling, while providing shelter, reflects the identity and individuality of its occupant(s). Traditional architecture evolved with time, catering to the needs of the inhabitants, adopting local materials and in harmony with the prevalent climate and environment. Growing aspirations and global pressures drive transitions in this traditional fabric, pushing towards modern construction practices. For traditional societies in Asia and Africa with a large rural population, transitions have serious local and global impact, including loss of traditions, increased material and energy demand, and contribution towards climate change. This article reviews transition in dwellings in rural settlements and makes an effort to comprehend its nature, drivers and consequences. Understanding transitions helps appreciate traditional building practices and design for a sustainable future.Keywords

Solar photovoltaic (PV) installations are growing exponentially globally, with a rising fraction of solar PVs in the renewable energy mix. Climate change is also expected to influence PV installations worldwide. Understanding the climate change impact on PV installations has been the scope of many recent studies. This article reviews recent studies on climate change impacts on PV installations based on the present scenario, and examines the effect of rising temperatures on the performance and service life of PV installations. On the contrary, PV installations may also cause an increase in the local ambient temperature. The impact of PV installations on the local and global climate is yet to be established. Comprehensive studies need to be undertaken to examine the impact between climate change and the performance of PV installations.Keywords
