The Village 

The geometry of the building has been heavily influenced by the Bauhaus, with its emphasis on openness, clarity, and rationality exhibited in the clear design language of the facade and lines.
A critical deviation from the norm was to convince the client that the entire development would be more vibrant with a mixture of different units.
This way, the building would ensure that users from the full spectrum of India’s exploding middle class all mingle including young, professionals who are new to the city; older, established residents and families both large and small, all at a range of income levels.
Encircling the 12 floors of apartments is a ribbon of terraces, acting as shading devices against direct sunlight, and giving outdoor access to every room.
