                     Sholinganallur, as a burgeoning urban center and a major hub for the IT sector, faces a pressing need
                     for sustainable housing solutions tailored to the unique requirements of its IT workforce. This thesis
                     proposes a comprehensive design for a group housing project aimed specifically at catering to the
                     needs and preferences of IT sector professionals in Chennai.
                     The research focuses on understanding the lifestyle, work patterns, and preferences of the IT sector
                     workforce, identifying key challenges they face in terms of housing, and exploring sustainable design
                     strategies to address these challenges. The project aims to create a living environment that not only
                     provides comfortable and functional living spaces but also promotes a sense of community and well-
                     being among residents.
                     Key  design  considerations  include  efficient  space  utilization,  sustainable  construction  practices,
                     integration of green spaces and recreational areas, and incorporation of smart technologies to enhance
                     energy  efficiency  and  convenience.  The  design  also  emphasizes  flexibility  and  adaptability  to
                     accommodate the evolving needs of the IT workforce.
                     The proposed group housing project seeks to serve as a model for sustainable urban living, offering
                     a blueprint for future developments aimed at enhancing the quality of life for the IT sector workforce
                     in Chennai.
