GUASL has been conceived after three years of thoughtful, innovative, original and cool discussions in coffee shops, food courts, over skype and across workstations. Brainchild of Paula and Prasoon, GUASL is instituted to do its bit in sustaining ‘our’ future by carefully designing our buildings, cities and lifestyle. GUASL’s blog is an initiative to share knowledge, generate ideas and promote healthy discussion in fields of sustainable design.
