Thomas Abraham's latest architectural project, The Crystal Hall was constructed over a span of five years. Located at the outskirts of Bangalore, The Crystal Hall, is an essay on light, history, glass and nature; and its interiors were designed to complement the building's architectural philosophy. The design integrates sustainability, reused materials, and everything is handmade by the poorest indigenous people of color, preserving the skill sets of neighboring artisans.

It has the world’s first windmill towers in residential design and its inside microclimate is sustained by its envelope of two layers of clear high-performance heat reflecting, recycled glass with a rainforest of non-invasive vegetation species within which prevents over 66.2% of the exterior heat entering the interiors.
