A refreshing site as you drive (or bike) your way to NUVALI, is a 4-hectare multi-functional lake, surrounded by green local plants, not only does it give an aesthetic reminder of oneness with nature, providing a habitat for a variety of migratory and resident bird species while serving multiple sustainable functions such as rainwater harvesting that can be used for landscaping, car washing and toilet-flushing among others.

Home to koi, these colorful creatures are not only fun to watch, but it also helps keep the lake water clear. Koi are an omnivorous fish, and recognize the person feeding them.

Other components include the use of water permeable paving blocks whenever possible and the double-piping system in each household, i.e., each household will have separate water pipes for human and non-human use like watering the plants and flushing the toilet.
