The location of this site is in Kandivali, in the western suburbs of Mumbai. Over the last 2 decades the locality has grown in leaps and bounds supported by the city1s ever changing infrastructure. This has invited a significant proliferation of residents.

The project is strategically located between two roads; the main 36 meter wide Linking road and the 18 meter wide service road. This dichotomy of the roads around the plot has defined the mixed use design, distinctly segregating the circulation required for the retail & residential sections.
The retail shopping is designed to maximize foot fall from the 36 meter wide main road frontage. The shops occupy the ground & first floor. The entry to the residential apartments is from the 18 mts service road; minimizing the hazards of ongoing traffic.

The residences are planned on the upper floors to get the uninterrupted views of the green top podium, the Joggers park, municipal garden and the seafront towards the west.

As a result, the apartments are spread over three towers of 24 storeys - two towards the Linking with 36 meter road and one towards the 18 meter wide road, overlooking each other across the podium that separates them. The apartments comprise 2 BHK & 3 BHK units; cross-ventilated with decks attached to the living room. The podium garden fulfils the social requirements of the residents that include a swimming pool, party lawn and a children's play area. Parking, an urgent need of every residential and commercial property has been consciously planned on the lower floors maximizing privacy for the residents.

The mass of the fagade is structured into slender, vertical fins while the balconies form the intermittent horizontal grid.
